Mr. Argent's Principal Page

Welcome parents, students, and potential staff of Lake Myra Elementary School. Please visit this site often to get updates, changes, and progress information for the opening of Lake Myra Elementary School. 


I hope to use this web-site to offer a forum for everyone interested in Lake Myra and for anyone interested in my thoughts and philosphy of education.  To begin, I hope you will click here to see an article and podcast on the WCPSS web-site concerning my thoughts on communication in a school setting.  I am dedicated to being a great communicator and keeping everyone informed of the wonderful things that will occur at Lake Myra!

Staff Essential Outcomes                 Vital Behaviors

Vital Behaviors for Student Achievement:

Dr. Burns, Superintendent of Wake County Public Schools, recently noted that there were two vital behaviors that teachers can truly influence that will positively impact student learning.  These two behaviors are:

  • Explicitly teach the standard course of study
  • Positively impact attendance

At Lake Myra, we will work hard to positively impact these two vital behaviors by living our mission, vision, and values.  Furthermore, we will work tirelessly to accomplish our School Improvement Plan and implement research based best practices.
