Hello! My name is Katie Miller. I graduated from Ball State University with a bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education with a minor in Special Education.  I have worked in this field since 2009. I started out as a PreK teacher at the Carousel Play & Learn Center in Greensburg for six years, I have experience as an ABA Therapist, and worked with families and children through Head Start for six years before coming to St. Louis. I was born and raised Catholic. I attended St. Mary’s Catholic School in Greensburg from kindergarten to sixth grade. I have lived in Batesville since 2015 with my husband, Curtis. We have two children, a daughter born in 2020 and a son born in 2022. The 2022-2023 school year was my first year at St. Louis Catholic School as director and lead teacher. I am thrilled to bring my knowledge and experience to St. Louis Preschool and have the opportunity to share my Catholic faith with our Little Cardinals.  

My name is Emily Lamping, I work with both our PreK and Early Learners classes. I have been at St. Louis Preschool since August 2021. Everyday that I am in the classroom, I strive to meet the students emotional, physical, and social needs with no hesitation. I find joy being a positive mentor and role model as well as watching the students learn and grow. I was born in Houston, TX and raised in Bradenton, FL. I moved to Batesville from Milford, OH in 2014. I am married to David Lamping and have one son, Ezra. Just a few things about me, I am passionate about flamingos, manatees, the beach, the Astros, and most importantly…. my cats, Adam and Ira.
