Stephen and Harriet Myers Middle School is a public middle school in Albany, New York, serving students in grades 6 through 8 as part of the City School District of Albany [1]. The school is located at 100 Elbel Court, Albany, NY 12209, and its main telephone number is 518-475-6425 [1]. The principal is William Rivers [2]. For the 2024-25 school year, the New York State Education Department reported a total enrollment of 570 students at the school [2].
Myers Middle School is one of three middle schools in the City School District of Albany, which serves more than 9,000 students across 16 schools: 12 elementary schools, three middle schools, and Albany High School [3]. The school describes itself as a Community School, meaning the building functions as a neighborhood center that provides additional support and services to students and families during and beyond the regular school day [1].
This profile is based on the school’s pages on the district website and on the New York State Education Department school profile. It is intended as a starting point for families researching the school, not as a substitute for confirming schedules, programs, and enrollment rules with the school or district.
Location and School Identity
The school’s legal name in state records is Stephen and Harriet Myers Middle School. NYSED lists the school with BEDS code 010100010045 and Institution ID 800000059069, with the campus at 100 Elbel Court, Albany, NY 12209 [2]. The district website uses the shorter form Myers Middle School in headings and navigation [1][3].
Readers searching for a school named Myers should note that this profile covers only the Albany school identified by those state codes and that address. The school’s name honors Stephen and Harriet Myers; the school and district pages reviewed for this profile do not discuss the naming or provide a founding date.
Location, district affiliation, and admissions eligibility are separate matters. A City School District of Albany address or an Albany ZIP code does not by itself establish that a student is assigned to Myers. Assignment depends on district rules and, according to the school’s own site, on the elementary school a student attended [1].
Grades and Academic Programs
Myers Middle School serves grades 6, 7, and 8 [1]. The school day is organized around a nine-period schedule that begins with first period at 8:03 a.m. and ends with ninth period at 3 p.m. [1].

New York State administers standardized assessments in English language arts and mathematics in grades 3 through 8 and in science in grades 4 and 8. Students receive a performance level from 1 to 4, with levels 3 and 4 considered proficient [2]. The NYSED profile page for Myers Middle School displays assessment results for grade 6 ELA and grade 7 ELA [2].
The sources examined for this profile, which are the school’s pages on the district website and the NYSED school profile, do not include a course catalog, a list of electives, or descriptions of specialized academic programs at Myers. Statements about middle school programming in general should not be read as claims about specific offerings at this school. Families who need details about courses, scheduling, or intervention and enrichment programs should contact the school directly.
Enrollment and School Data
NYSED reported 570 students enrolled at Myers Middle School for 2024-25 [2]. That figure is a school-level count for a single reporting year. It should not be combined with district totals, and it should not be compared with other years without checking the underlying report card for each year.
Beyond enrollment, the NYSED profile links to enrollment details and to state assessment results [2]. The version of the page reviewed for this profile showed assessment result headings for grade 6 ELA and grade 7 ELA but not the underlying proficiency percentages, so those values are not reproduced here. Readers who need the numbers should open the report card directly. NYSED also withholds some values from public reporting in certain circumstances, so a missing figure should not be interpreted as zero.
Assessment data of this kind describes how students performed on specific state tests in a specific year. It does not, on its own, establish overall school quality, and it should be read alongside other information such as the school’s programs, services, and the district’s own reporting. Demographic characteristics of an enrolled population do not determine how a school performs and should not be treated as an explanation for results.
Admissions and Enrollment
The school’s website lists four elementary schools whose students attend Myers: Delaware Community School, Giffen Memorial Elementary School, Montessori Magnet School, and Thomas O’Brien Academy of Science and Technology (TOAST) [1]. That list describes the school’s incoming pattern from the district’s elementary schools. It does not by itself confirm that a particular student, household, or address is eligible for assignment to Myers.
Enrollment procedures, registration deadlines, transfer rules, and any magnet or program-specific application requirements are set by the City School District of Albany. The sources examined for this profile do not describe those procedures in detail, and the school’s pages reviewed here do not present a separate application process. Families should confirm current requirements directly with the district and the school office before relying on any general statement about middle school assignment in Albany.
Student Services and Family Information
As a Community School, Myers is described by the district as functioning as a neighborhood center that offers additional support and services to students and families during and beyond the regular school day [1]. The school’s contact page lists a Home School Coordinator and school counselors among its student support staff, along with a parent-teacher association contact [3].
For questions related to special education, the district directs families to the City School District of Albany Special Education Office at (518) 475-6150 x14319, and to the Sub-CSE Chairperson whose responsibilities cover Hackett, Myers, and North Albany [1][3].
Staffing, service availability, and program offerings can change from year to year. The sources examined for this profile do not document transportation eligibility, language-support services, or accessibility details for this campus, so those questions should be directed to the school or the district office rather than assumed from general practice elsewhere.
Community Context
Myers Middle School operates within the City School District of Albany, which describes its mission as working in partnership with its diverse community to engage every learner in a robust educational program designed to provide the knowledge and skills necessary for success [3]. The district’s schools include 12 elementary schools, three middle schools, and Albany High School [3].
The sources reviewed for this profile do not state a founding date or other historical milestones for Myers Middle School, and none are asserted here. Verified details about the school’s history, if needed, should be requested from the district or the school office.
