Hi! My name is Laura Beth Talley Mills and I am thrilled to be your child's teacher this year. I started teaching in 2010 and I love it. I can truly say teaching is what God has called me to do. I assure you I will educate your children to the best of my ability. I consider my students "my kids" and will treat them with kindness and respect!

      I grew up in Moody with my parents, Bill and Cathy Talley and my older sister, Katie Talley Dawson.  My first niece was born in  2014 and my second niece was born in 2018. We love spoiling our girls! On September 27, 2014 I married my best friend, Brandon. He is such a wonderful man and support system. We had a son, Wesley, on March 22, 2018. He is so much fun to watch grow and learn each day! We  also have a precious yellow lab named Riggins that we love to spoil!

     I went to school at Moody from K-12th grade and I am thrilled to be able to give back to the school that gave so much to me. I graduated from the University of Alabama at Birmingham in May of 2010 and I graduated from The University of West Alabama with my Master's Degree in Library Media in May of 2014.
