What Makes Us Great ...

Myakka River Elementary School provides a supportive and stimulating learning environment, where all students have the opportunity to reach their full potential and succeed.

Students in Mrs. Woithe’s class kicked off Mental Health Awareness Month by wearing their favorite green gear. This month is all about reminding our students that their feelings matter, it's okay to ask for help, and that they are never alone. We are so proud of our students for showing their support and helping to shine a light on wellness.
