W.S. Ryan Elementary School

Empowering Lifelong Learners

    Welcome to W.S. Ryan Elementary

    • W.S. Ryan is known for its welcoming atmosphere to students and parents. There is an active presence at the school and at events from moms involved in the PTA to dads participating in Watch D.O.G.S, which recruits father figures of students to volunteer on campus and serve as a role model for students, to teachers and staff wanting to help students grow.

      The school, built in 2001 and renovated in 2011, was named after Wayne Stuart Ryan, a local businessman who donated the land on which the school stands.
