I’ m grateful for so much of your teachings, specially making Of Mice & Men unforgettable. Your lessons taught far more than literature; they shaped how I read, think, and understand the world. Congrats!— Reese Hubbard, Class of 2023
Dear Mr. Ryan, thank you so much for sharing your love for Shakespeare with us. It made Romeo and Juliet so much more interesting and engaging.— Pierre Laffont, Class of 2026
Your English Class will remain my favorite educational experience in my life. From Romeo and Juliet to The Count of Monte Cristo, I learned things that have shaped me into the man I am today! Thank you.— RJ LaPenta, Class of 2023
Mr. Ryan, where do I start? From our class reading of The Count of Monte Cristo to handing out oreos in your class during commons, you always found a way to make everyone ' s day a bit brighter.— Hudson Kern, Class of 2024
If only the Yankees had as many championships as the number of times you have read The Count of Monte Cristo. Congratulations on a historic career and a very well-deserved retirement!— Luke Jenkins, Class of 2004
Every morning, Mr. Ryan and I talk about sports. Whether it ' s basketball, football or baseball, it ' s always fun to debate current sports events. Even though he ' s a Yankee fan, he ' s the best!— Andrew Oneglia, Class of 2026
He is the best Teacher I have ever had.— Henry Wood, Class of 2023
Mr. Ryan, you have been my favorite English teacher I have ever had. You always made English class funny and made me laugh. Even though it didn’ t seem like it, you made the Count interesting to me.— Finn Rhatigan, Class of 2025
Witty, kind, generous. One of the greats. I was lucky enough to enjoy the privilege of having you as a teacher. Wishing you the best in retirement.
