Myers Park Traditional School is a full magnet school offering the traditional program. MPTS is devoted to develop- ing responsible, respectful, and cooperative citizens. We strive to empower students to think critically, instill and model principled character, promote leadership, and em-brace awareness in our diverse and inclusive community. We have begun a journey to implement “The Leader in Me” school leadership model beginning the fall of 2014. Our goal is to become a Lighthouse School which will allow the MPTS family to showcase and emphasize the im- portance of education and citizenship.
