A Philadelphia nun and Catholic school teacher was placed on
administrative leave by the archdiocese on Wednesday after images
surfaced of her failing a sobriety test.
Sister Kimberly Miller, IHM, is a faculty member at Little Flower High School for Girls in Philadelphia. On Nov. 7, Miller was allegedly driving a Ford F150 pick-up truck at around 3am when the truck backed into a Meineke Auto Shop in Turnersville, New Jersey, smashing the shop’s front door.
Police stopped the pick-up a short distance away. A passer-by captured video as an officer led the nun through a field sobriety test. Miller was later charged with driving under the influence. Sister Kimberly, a beloved teacher at Little Flower, leads a popular literary festival at the school.
Archdiocese spokesman Kenneth A. Gavin offered few details about the
disciplinary action.
“This action was taken following a matter that took place outside of
school last Saturday morning,” Gavin said. “School families have been
informed of this development and arrangements have been made to provide
coverage for her classes."
