Lakeview Elementary fourth grade teacher Alisia Myers is one of two Wisconsin teachers and 154 teachers nationwide selected to participate in the weeklong Mickelson Teachers Academy July 17-22 in Jersey City, N.J.

Math and science experts from the National Science Teachers Association and Math Solutions lead the academy. All expenses are paid for by the academy, which is funded by professional golfer Phil Mickelson and his wife Amy. ExxonMobil sponsors the event.
The academy includes third through fifth grade teachers from all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Jodi Ryan from Waunakee is the other Wisconsin representative.
Myers is completing her 10th year teaching at Lakeview. She is a graduate of UW-Oshkosh and served as a student teacher at Lakeview in the spring of 2006 before beginning full-time at the school that fall.
