My name is Ryan Keenan and I teach 6th-grade Literature and Strategies/Writing Composition.  Boise State University is my alma mater and I graduated with a degree in Elementary Education with an emphasis on Literacy.  I grew up in Boise, where I went to Timberline High School.  My family resides in Meridian.  They consist of my wife and four children.  I have three boys and a baby girl.  Before teaching I was a Youth Services Coordinator for the Garden City Public Library.  I Love reading and writing and hope to instill that same love for the written word in my students.
