Seattle Public Schools

I've been a joyful member of the Queen Anne Elementary team since 2021. Engaging with children in creative work and play is a passion and a calling. I’ve worked with Seattle Public Schools since 2012 – as an instructional assistant at B.F. Day Elementary, as a UW student teacher at Wing Luke Elementary, and as a special education teacher at Robert Eagle Staff Middle School.

I grew up in Pennsylvania, but Seattle feels like home. I live in the Fremont neighborhood with my husband, our delightfully quirky teens, and our two silly cats. I love writing, hiking, gardening, yoga, and visiting the harbor seals at the Ballard Locks.

Maggie Mattmiller dual majored in Deaf Education and Special Education at Ball State University and received a master’s degree in Educational Leadership and Policy from the University of Washington. Originally from Ohio, her first teaching job was teaching American Sign Language in a high school as a world language teacher. After moving to Seattle, she joined Seattle Public Schools where she has been for 10 years, serving as an instructional assistant, a special education teacher and in multiple central office capacities. Most recently, she has been a Professional Growth and Educator Support consulting teacher coaching new-to-profession special education teachers. She has worked in classrooms prek-12th grade and is excited to be returning to high school. She is an avid reader, looking forward to getting book recommendations from students, staff, and families, so please share your favorites!  Ms. Mattmiller will be serving students with last names starting with the letters Nor – Z.
