Ryan Meinkoth » Staff Directory

My name is Ryan Meinkoth and I am the director of bands here at SVA. This year marks my 8th year of teaching and my 4th year at SkyView. I teach 6th grade band, 7th grade band, 8th grade band, middle school music appreciation, high school band, and work with extracurricular ensembles such as jazz band and pep band. I'm originally from St. Louis, MO, went to college at Mizzou, and taught in a small town in Missouri for four years before making the move to beautiful Colorado. In my free time I play ultimate frisbee, climb, and spend time with my wonderful girlfriend, Callie and our cute pup, Macy. Getting to work with kids and make music all day makes me the luckiest teacher at SVA and I love my job! We hope to see you at our next concert!
