Our team has worked hard this year to keep our schools open and provide students with quality instruction. We are proud of the Bryant Public School staff for the dedication and resiliency they have shown. #PublicSchoolProud
Bryant Families,
During Governor Hutchinson’s COVID-19 update this morning, he announced that all public health directives (with the exception of the mask mandate) will be changed to public health guidance. The Governor said while a directive is a mandate, a guidance is a strong recommendation.
Gov. Hutchinson will reassess the state’s progress in the COVID-19 pandemic as we approach March 31.
School districts are given the authorization to continue requiring students, staff and visitors to abide by Arkansas Department of Health guidance, which includes wearing masks and social distancing.
At this time, nothing has changed for staff, students or visitors to schools/events at Bryant Public Schools.
Administrators received the information at the same time as the general public. We will communicate with our staff and our families to determine if any changes need to be made. Any proposed changes will first be discussed with the Bryant School Board, and if approved, will be shared with our stakeholders.
Bryant Schools provide many academic competitions and clubs for gifted and talented students. Each campus offers different opportunities so check with your school office or counselor. Current clubs/competitions may include: Destination Imagination, Chess, Quiz Bowl, Robotics, Spelling Bee, Mock Trial, Model United Nations, BETA Club. #opp4success
