For the second time in three years, the Tracy Area Public School District finds itself looking for a new principal.
Tony Miller last week informed the district that he is resigning from his position to worked closer to home in the Cedar Mt. School District.
Miller, who lives in Redwood Falls, was hired as TAHS principal in 2022. He is a 2004 graduate of Southwest Minnesota State University and also has his K-12 principal license and director of special education license.
He taught government, economics and special education in Redwood Falls for 11 years prior to joining the Education Learning Center in Belview, working with children with behavioral needs.
Before coming to Tracy, Miller spent several years with SW/WC Service Cooperative, and has worked with Project Search in Marshall and Stars Online Academy as well as some alternative learning programs. Miller also served on the Redwood Area School Board for two terms while working at SW/WC. School District.

TAPS Supt. Chad Anderson said Miller’s versatility proved to be a strong point during his time in Tracy. Miller is licensed as a special education director and as a high school principal, a rare combination in today’s world.
“He brought that experience of working with difficult and challenging students; one of his strengths was being able to work in disciplined situations, working with families and kids who need extra assistance in the special education field,” Anderson said.
Anderson said ideally, the district would have Miller’s replacement hired by July 1.
