Hi everyone! My name is Ryleigh Shoff and I am the new elementary general music teacher and Richland Elementary! In addition to teaching at the elementary school, I am the assistant marching band director of the Richland Rams Marching Band! I grew up in Vinco, PA and I am a 2018 graduate of Central Cambria High School. I went to college at Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, PA, where I received degrees in music education and music therapy. I student taught at Abraham Lincoln Elementary School in the Bethel Park School District in Pittsburgh, PA, and South Fayette High School in McDonald, PA. I completed my 6 month music therapy internship at the Celebration Villa of Chippewa in Chippewa, PA, where I worked with older adults with dementia/Alzheimer's. This is my first year teaching and I am so happy and excited to be a Richland Ram!
While not in school, I love to spend time with all of my animals, crochet, go to concerts, and write my own music.
