Hello Woerner Parents,
I once again have some very exciting news to share with you. As you know, we received the Missouri School of Character Award in February. We decided to also apply for the National School of Character Award, and went through that process in March. This evaluation included interviews of teams of teachers, staff, students, and parents. I'm proud to say that we have received this award as well! We are one of only 50 schools in the United States to receive the honor of being a National School of Character this year.
We are very proud of this accomplishment. Our many years of hard work on our Character Education Program have really paid off. Our students know a lot about character traits, showing good character, and being an overall kind and good person.

Congratulations to all for this prestigious award. I am so proud!

Welcome to Woerner Principal's Corner
Hello! My name is Margaret (Peggy) Meyer, and I am the principal here at Woerner School. I have been working at Woerner since 2000, first as a teacher, then as Assistant Principal, and now as Principal. I truly love the staff and students at Woerner, and I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else! Woerner School is a neighborhood elementary school that serves students in Preschool through 5th grade. The staff at Woerner School is committed to ensuring the success of all of our students both academically and socially. We have strong academic and character education programs that help develop the whole child. Woerner is a top choice for many families in our surrounding neighborhood. We recently received both the Missouri State School of Character Award and the coveted National School of Character Award. Our student body is very diverse. We have single-gender classrooms, and are fully accredited. If you are interested in joining Woerner as a school family, a community partner, or volunteer, please contact us at 314-481-8585.
