Ms. Laura Miller
Hello my name is Laura Miller and I am a Kindergarten teacher at Polenta Elementary School. I was born and raised in Garner, North Carolina. I then attended UNCW and graduated in 2015 with my Bachelors degree in Elementary Education. This year will be my eighth year as a teacher and also my eighth year at Polenta. I have taught four years in second grade and three years in Kindergarten. I love working with the younger ages and creating that strong foundation and love for learning. I value strong classroom community and promote kindness among our classmates.
