Our school provides learning opportunities for gifted/talented students, services for students with dyslexia or speech limitations, and special education services. The staff at Scharbauer Elementary focuses on the "Professional Learning Communities at Work" process in which our educators work collaboratively in recurring cycles of collective inquiry and action research to achieve better results for the students we serve. Scharbauer Elementary opened in 1985 and is named after Ruth Cowden Scharbauer, matriarch of the Scharbauer family that has influenced Midland for more than a century. Scharbauer Elementary is located in Northwest Midland in the Grassland Subdivision.
