Hello! My name is Renea Mills. I have taught school for 22 years. The first five years were in first grade and the last seventeen have been in sixth grade. I LOVE sixth grade students!!! Teaching is truly a passion of mine. I knew that I wanted to be a teacher the very first day I went to kindergarten. I can't imagine doing anything else with my life. A little about myself: I graduated from Aurora High School in Aurora, Missouri. I received my Bachelors in Education from Missouri Southern State College in Joplin, Missouri. I then went on to receive my Masters In Education from St. Mary's University in Leavenworth, Kansas. I am married to David Mills, he is a Springfield firefighter. I have three sons. Alex is a junior at Crowder College in Neosho. He is attending college this fall for Computer Program Design. Ethan is my middle child. He is a sophomore at Crowder College in Webb City, Mo . He loves to build things and take them apart again. He is a very hands-on child. Aaron is my "baby". He is a junior here at Carthage Junior High School. Aaron loves to read and play video grames. All three of my boys are amazing!! I love them more than words can say.
