Jessica Ryder

Hi! My name is Jessica Ryder and I have been a teacher at Penryn since 2021. I have wanted to be a teacher since I was in 4th grade, so I'm very grateful to be living my dream each day. 
 
After growing up in Napa, I moved to Eugene to attend the University of Oregon. There, I received my degree in Education with a minor in Special Education. I then attended UC Davis where I earned my teaching credential and Master's in Education. I have been teaching since 2009.
 
On my days off, I enjoy spending time with my husband and daughter going to our family cabin, hiking, swimming, or kayaking. I also spend a lot of weekends cheering my daughter on at her volleyball tournaments.
 
Penryn is such a special place and I feel so fortunate to be a part of this wonderful community.
