Welcome, Jack Miller!
The Department of Extended Learning (Discovery Link) has hired Jack Miller to replace Cheryl Ruiz as Teller’s Program Supervisor.
Hey there! I am so excited to be your new Program Supervisor for Discovery Link. I know I have big shoes to fill, but I am looking forward to settling in and meeting all of you. My name Is Jack Miller, I am a CU graduate, and a Boston local and prior to working with DPS I was back in Boston playing professional rugby. Now I live in the Highlands area with my two roommates. I spend a lot of time in my garden and when I am not injured, playing rugby. I have worked with children for ~ 5 years now between coaching, summer camps, and teaching, and I have loved every minute of it. I cannot wait to get to know all of you and provide you and your children with the best programming possible! You can reach Jack at jack_miller@dpsk12.net or 303-241-1133.
