Here at Myers, we are committed to providing the most meaningful educational experience possible for our kids. Our goal is to enable students to understand the world around them and the talents within them so that they can become fulfilled individuals and active, compassionate citizens. Myers Elementary School offers a rigorous curriculum for grades K-5. Our focus in teaching, learning and assessing is to be innovative. We are working hard at creating learning opportunities that enable our kids to grow their natural sense of curiosity and creativity. We want our kids to reason rather than memorize, and we want them to discover learning through collaboration and conversation; rather than through us simply giving them the information. Here at Myers we believe it is important to BE NICE, WORK HARD, and NOT TAKE SHORTCUTS. We want our kids to develop GRIT (the ability to see things to the end and get up and go after it even when they are knocked down.) We believe that if our kids are nice, work hard, show grit, and "put in the work," then they will have a far better chance to live a fulfilled life and be active, compassionate citizens NOW and FOR LIFE.Myers Elementary School is committed to providing the best educational experience for all of our students. We take tremendous pride in who we are, who we serve, what we do, and what we are all about. We expect greatness from ourselves, our kids, our parents, and our community. We stop at nothing to provide our kids with the best. We strive to add value to their lives, each other's lives, and the lives of those who call Myers their "school home."
