Social Emotional Learning directly influences a student's academic achievement and their ability to learn. Bryant’s commitment to Capturing Kids’ Hearts shows how much we love our students and families. Even in difficult times, our public schools are making connections each day with their students, families and broader communities. #PublicSchoolProud

Bryant Schools is excited to welcome students and staff back to campus and classes tomorrow, Tuesday, February 23.
We would like to extend a special thank you to our administrators for driving the roads in our district to determine if they were safe for bus routes. We also want to thank to our city and county street crews for clearing roadways.
As a reminder, ALL students will be dismissed early tomorrow for Secondary Parent-Teacher Conferences. While an early dismissal is not optimal after being remote for six days, the date was already set on the school calendar. Find the early dismissal schedule here: bit.ly/2ZtL968.
(Please Note: Grade 10 and grade 12 students will have a Remote Learning Day on Tuesday, February 23 while grade 11 students take the free ACT-11 exam on campus. Grade 11 students who have opted-out of the free ACT-11 exam will also have a Remote Learning Day. The ACT exam date has been scheduled since last semester.)
See you tomorrow, Hornets!

Students will access their assignments through Google Classroom.
Since paper packets were sent home with only five days of school assignments, teachers will work with students who do not have a device and/or internet to complete assignments for this remote learning day.
REMINDER: ALL students will be dismissed early on Tuesday, February 23. Secondary schools (grades 6-12) will hold virtual Parent-Teacher Conferences from 2:00-7:30pm. Teachers will contact parents to set up a conference time.
