Mrs. Jessica Miller

Jess Miller began her career teaching 5th grade and developed a passion for teaching math where she was excited to teach middle school math and Algebra. She then moved to teach Algebra at Coolidge High School, where she was recruited to become the Academic Math Coach for the Coolidge Unified School District. Her time spent in the Curriculum Department developed her passion for curriculum and instruction. Jess felt blessed to be hired to be the Director of Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment in the 2012-2013 school year. Jess finds deep pride in calling the Coolidge Unified School District her “work home.”

Jess and her husband live in Casa Grande where they have been raising their family of four daughters and six sons. You can find Jess at the football field, baseball diamond, or the cross-country race cheering on her children, engulfed in a great book, or playing with her grandchildren.
