My name is Erin Milligan and I am thrilled to be teaching kindergarten at Coe! I am from the Pacific Northwest originally and I also lived in France for two years. I have taught kindergarten for several years and my favorite part of teaching young children is fostering the substantial growth and independence of children through the year. I have previously taught in multi-lingual, arts-based, and accelerated academic programs. I live with my husband, our two young children, and dog and love to go on outdoor family adventures. I love being inspired every day by the staff, students, and families at Coe.
I have wanted to teach since I was a little girl. I played school with my siblings at a young age and taught my younger brother how to read and skate. I have been in the education field my entire career and loved every moment. I recently graduated with my masters in education and plan on teaching for years to come. In the future, I plan on opening a boarding school for children and teens who have no home and would have great difficulty achieving academic success and finding a career outside of crime and poverty. Outside of working and planning for my career’s future, I enjoy spending time with my family, cooking, eating, traveling, and gaming. I also love researching topics that would advance my teaching skills and help create a fun inclusive classroom.
