Student Spotlight: Alia’Richae Miller

Meet Alia, affectionally known as Chae, a senior at John Adams College & Career Academy in Cleveland, Ohio and a four-year JKL veteran! Chae is the definition of leadership and reliability – one of the kindest and most dedicated students we’ve ever had in the program. 

At the start of this school year, we faced a challenge: recruiting new members after many graduates moved on. Chae stepped up in a big way. She personally recruited the highest number of new students for JKL, both during school and at our first open house, and her efforts paid off – those students now attend sessions consistently!

On top of her JKL contributions, Chae is excelling academically, currently ranked #1 in the Senior class of 2026. Her commitment to both her education and her peers makes her a true role model in our program.
