Meyer has been teaching and coaching for 10 years and currently teaches biology, ecology and anatomy, and coaches Envirothon, Junior FIRST LEGO League, Knowledge Bowl, Science Bowl and Youth Energy Summit(YES!). Meyer has found in her years of coaching that students discover their true passion in life by their involvement in non-traditional extracurricular activities. She feels every student deserves the opportunity to find and hone their passion. Meyer plans to donate a portion of her award to installing Wi-Fi in school district buses so students in extracurricular activities can always be tuned in.
