Mrs. Ryterski's Web Page
My name is Melanie Ryterski. I have been an elementary music teacher with the Waterloo School District for 15 years. I earned my Bachelor of Music Education degree at Eastern Illinois University, and my Masters in Elementary Education from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville. I have taught vocal and general music at all grade levels during my teaching career, but presently I teach Kindergarten through Second Grade, and I really enjoy working with primary school students! I am currently assigned to WJ Zahnow in the morning and Rogers Elementary in the afternoons.
I am married to Craig Ryterski. He is an instrumental and general music teacher with the Columbia School District. We have two beautiful daughters: Claire, age 14 and Grace, age 10. In my spare time, I enjoy traveling with my family, reading, and scrap-booking.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have questions or concerns about your child's music education. You may call the Zahnow office: 939-3458 or the Rogers office: 939-3454, and leave a message or e-mail me at mryterski@wcusd5.net. I will return your call as soon as possible.
