Susan Miller Appointed Head of Lower School

 
Susan Miller joins Tower Hill School as Head of Lower School, effective July 1, 2015. Miller has 25 years of experience in the field of education, most recently as chief operating officer/director of Meeting Street Academy in Charleston, South Carolina.
 
“Susan is a warm and engaging person who impressed us with her knowledge and love of children, as well as her interest in helping the Lower School to continue its educational growth,” Head of School Harry Baetjer said.
 
Carney, Sandoe & Associates assisted in identifying a pool of well-qualified educators for the position. Several candidates visited campus and met with the Lower School faculty, staff, administrators and parents. 

Miller is a graduate of Cincinnati Country Day and earned her Bachelor of Arts in Education and Child Study from Smith College, followed by a Master of Education in Educational Leadership and a Principal's Certificate from Miami University in Ohio. 

She began her teaching career in 1989, and in 1996 she joined Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy. There she became assistant principal in 2000 and then principal in 2002 of Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy's Otto Armleder Memorial Education Center in downtown Cincinnati. The Armleder Center was a PK - 8th grade school set up to serve the downtown area and students who would not normally have access to an independent school. Miller remained in this position until 2011, when she was hired to help found the Meeting Street Academy in Charleston, South Carolina.
