Barb Myers,

Sioux Falls Teacher of the Year

SDMEA member, Barb Myers, was chosen by the Sioux Falls School Board to receive the 2008 John W. Harris Teacher of the Year award. Myers, who has taught music at Axtell Park Middle School for 18 years, was chosen from a field of six finalists.

JoJean Callison, Axtell Park assistant principal, nominated Myers because she bridges the gap between core subjects and music. Callison said in the finalist video that Myers exemplifies a can-do attitude and readily takes on challenges. “She labors honestly to ensure that each student she teaches ends up getting the best she can give them,” she said.

Myers said in the video that she has a passion for the learning process and tries to build on what students learn in other classrooms.

Michelle Cork, an eight-grade science teacher at Axtell Park, credited Myers for her leadership and skill on how to integrate different subjects and relating to students. “Students come back all the time just to see her,” Cork said. “That tells you something about how much of a connection she makes with her students.”

Congratulations, Barb, from all the music educators in South Dakota. We are very proud of you!
