Homecoming is a chance to Experience Bryant at its best, as students, families, and alumni come together to celebrate traditions, make memories, and share their Hornet pride.
This year’s celebration included the crowning of Mallory Thompson as the 2026 Bryant High School Homecoming Queen.
Eriel Carter, the 2025 Homecoming Queen, returned to crown Mallory as family and friends celebrated the announcement. Mallory was escorted by her parents, Kenneth and Candace Thompson.
Bryant Elementary students Sam Peckat served as Crown Carrier and August Phillips served as Ball Presenter.
During the Homecoming pep rally, Mallory was escorted by Hornet quarterback Kyler Shelby, safety Terriun Jones, and defensive back Mikaelyon Peoples.
After graduation, Mallory plans to attend Spelman College and pursue her dream of becoming an obstetrician.
We’re proud to celebrate Mallory and all the students who represented their classmates on the 2026 Homecoming Court:
Senior Maids: Nyla Newton, Caroline Duke, De'Neice Green, and TaTyana Trice
Junior Maids: Emory Arnold, Journey Wells, Keityn Flenoy, and Jara Ancarrow
Sophomore Maids: Ashleigh Adell, Ivy Garrett, Maylee Nguyen, and Ava Covington
Thank you to our families, students, and staff for making Homecoming a celebration of school spirit and shared memories.
