September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. For the fourth year, our district is participating in the #GoGold campaign.

All Hornets are asked to #GoGold on Friday, September 26. Wear gold clothing/accessories or wear a gold ribbon. We are asking students to donate $1 and staff to donate $2. All donations will be given to Arkansas Children’s Hospital Hematology/Oncology Child Life Department to support children with cancer and their families.

It’s National Arts in Education Week!
At Bryant Schools, we are proud to offer exceptional Fine Arts programs in visual arts, music, band, choir, and theatre. Every elementary student receives art and music instruction, while middle and high school students can explore band, choir, theatre, and advanced visual arts opportunities.
Fine Arts education does more than nurture creativity: it builds confidence, teamwork, problem-solving, and communication skills. Students gain cultural awareness, discover new talents, and develop lifelong passions that prepare them for success in school, careers, and beyond.
We are thankful for our outstanding Fine Arts teachers and celebrate the incredible creativity of our students.
