Fourth Grade

Chris Miller
Hello Patterson!  My name is Mr. Chris Miller and this my 17th year at Patterson International. I have taught for 23 years, including positions in Adams 12 District, Anchorage School District, Jefferson County and a year as an exchange teacher in Australia.  I have taught 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th grade.  I have two wonderful children that enjoyed their schooling at Patterson International and are now in college and high school.  My wife of 22 years is a physical therapist and works in Golden.  In our free time our family loves to snowboard, camp, play games, participate in sports and go on “family adventures”.   Teaching is the best profession in the world as it allows me the opportunity work with amazing students and help them develop as life long learners.  I am looking forward to another fantastic year at Patterson!

I’m so excited to be your partner in your child’s education this year!  I was born and raised right here in Littleton, Colorado and grew up a Jeffco student.  I am married to John, who is a Green Beret Army medic. We have one son who is now 22, two crazy furry dogs and two adorable cats. I love spending time in the mountains, paddle boarding, and collecting wild flowers. I also love gardening, some say, I have my grandmothers love for the outdoors and nature.

Ever since I can remember, I wanted to be a teacher.  When I was a young child,  I would line up all my stuffed animals and pretend they were my students.  Teaching impressionable lives is a passion of mine, I believe I have the best job EVER!

This will be my 22nd year teaching, all of which are right here at Patterson.  I love this school and it’s community.  I have taught everything from 1st to 4th grade, however 4th grade is my favorite.

Please keep in touch, and feel free to contact me any time.

Cheers,
Kara Young
