Welcome to Second Grade!

It is my pleasure to welcome you and your child to Second Grade.  Let me begin by telling you a little about myself.  My name is Martha Miller, and I graduated from Appalachian State University with a degree in Elementary Education.  I began teaching Second Grade for seven years, taught kindergarten for eight years, and now I am back in Second on my sixth year.  My husband and I share three beautiful children.  My oldest daughter just got married in December 2019, my youngest daughter is a first year student at UVA University, and my son is a tenth grader at Bassett High School.  

I am excited to be working with your child to help them reach their full potential.  I believe that a good Parent/Teacher relationship is necessary for maximum school success. Throughout the year, I will communicate to you through notes, telephone calls, monthly newsletters, progress reports, and conferences.  I encourage you to contact me with any concerns or questions.  You may send a note or call the school at (957-2226).  You can also e-mail me at mmiller@henry.k12.va.us.  I do check my e-mail twice a day (before school/after school), and I will get back to you as soon as I can.  I’m looking forward to a wonderful learning year with you and your child!
