School Made Simple™ was founded in 1984 by Dr. Edwin C. Myers PhD. Ed and his wife, Nellie, developed and expanded our product line over the years. Our brief, potent drills are so effective that they’re called Learning Vitamins™! Ed and Nellie homeschooled their twelve children all the way through twelfth grade. Now that they are retired, a few of their children have taken over the responsibilities of School Made Simple. We thank God for His blessings, and pray that we can serve parents and students for many years to come!
Ed Myers holds the Ph.D. from Carnegie-Mellon University, and the M.A. from Dallas Seminary. A scientist, educator, and musician, Ed designed the optics of the infrared spectrometers for NASA’s Voyager I and II space probes and was listed in "Who's Who in Technology Today". He has taught math and science courses at the university level, performed geophysical research in the petroleum industry, and served in elected office as county commissioner. Ed's favorite pastime is composing and directing choral pieces!
Ed’s wife, Nellie, is a Fine Arts graduate of Emporia State University. Her illustrations have appeared in Teens, The Lamp Post, Young Ambassador, The Dallas Times Herald, and throughout the Learning Vitamins drills. Nellie currently serves as the KS Education Director of the Family Alliance for Christian Temperance. She was happy to be a stay-at-home mom. Now that her kids are grown, her favorite pastime is babysitting the grandkids!
