Bryant Schools will be in session on Tuesday, January 14. Due to road conditions, some bus routes and stops have been modified to ensure the safety of our students. Many of our drivers have already contacted parents about minor changes to bus routes. Here are some additional changes which have not previously been communicated to parents:
ROUTE 71 - Blue Bird Sardis Bus Stop
Students normally assigned to this route meet at the intersection of Blue Bird Sardis/N. Sardis at 6:35am.
ROUTE 77 - Lake Norrell/W. Lawson Road Route
Students normally assigned to this entire route meet at Avilla Grocery at 6:45am.
ROUTE 39 (DES) - Valley Ridge/Ridge Pass Bus Stop
Students meet at Southview/Skyline at 6:45am.
ROUTES 107 (BMS), 106 (BJHS), 32 (BHS) - Valley Ridge/Ridge Pass Bus Stop
Students meet at Southview/Skyline at 6:55am.
We anticipate the afternoon routes to run as normally scheduled. Please monitor email, text and social media for drop off locations and times in case roads do not improve throughout the day.
We ask for your patience tomorrow morning as the changes may bring some delays. Our drivers will take all precautions to ensure the safety of our students. We look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow morning for another great day of learning!
