Tammy Miller, Founder/Executive Director
Tammy arrived in Austin in 2008 after escaping the cold winters of the northeast. Originally from Pennsylvania, followed by a few years in Maryland, Tammy moved to her favorite city of Austin, Texas. As an Elementary Education graduate from Cabrini College and experience teaching in Pennsylvania and Maryland, she accepted a first grade position at a Charter School in Southeast Austin. The transition to the Texas charter school system presented some challenges over her 5 years that helped her recognize her true passion. Upon reflecting on what impacted her most as a student, it was the memory of her school field trips that she remembered best and could still discuss in great detail. Taking these memories and the impact they had on her, she created ATX KIDS CLUB with a priority on the quality of the education and small ratios. Having intentionally moved to her favorite city, she wanted to provide a way for every child to explore Austin and experience the same level of love and passion for the amazing city we all enjoy. The partnership with CapMetro provides the means to explore and helps ensure that children learn how to access their city independently. ATX KIDS CLUB has provided opportunities for youth to create their own memories, become inspired, and learn through these urban field trip adventures. She couldn't be more proud of the difference ATX KIDS CLUB is making in the lives of many campers in and around the Austin area. |
