Mrs. Miranda Johnson

I have been teaching at Kennedy Middle School for the last couple years. I am extremely excited to be teaching 8th grade South Carolina History. I received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Secondary Education with a focus in Social Studies from the University of South Carolina-Aiken.

I got married in April of 2020 and my name changed from Ms. Mullins to Mrs. Johnson.  I also moved to Aiken, SC and love living about ten minutes from school. I enjoy teaching, reading, listening to music, and playing with my dogs. If you ever have any problems or questions, please feel free to email me.
