Angela Mask has been named the new principal for Bryant Elementary School. Former principal Mark Scarlett is retiring after 30 years in education.
Mrs. Mask is a native of North Little Rock. She graduated from Mount St. Mary High School. She attended UCA where she earned her Bachelor of Science in Education (2006) and Education Instructional Specialist licensure (2007). Her Master’s degree in Administration and Supervision was earned from UALR in May 2013.
Mrs. Mask has 15 years in the education field. Along with her classroom experience, she has served as assistant principal at both Bryant Elementary and Hurricane Creek Elementary. We are excited about the knowledge, passion for learning, and love for students and families that she will bring to Bryant Elementary.
She and husband Chris have three children: Daniel, Grace and Patterson. All are proud Bryant Hornets.
Join us in congratulating Mrs. Mask on her new role as principal of Bryant Elementary School!

Bryant Public Schools is proud to announce the hiring of Shannon Williams as Bryant Elementary assistant principal beginning in the 2021-22 school year.
Mrs. Williams graduated from ASU, majoring in Psychology, with minors in both Sociology and Interdisciplinary Family Studies, in 2001. Because of her innate love and compassion for children and learning, in 2003, she entered the Arkansas Non-Traditional Teacher Licensure Program and was hired in her first teaching position within the Pine Bluff School District.
During her tenure in the Pine Bluff School District, Mrs. Williams received her Master's Degree in Curriculum, Instruction and Multidisciplinary Studies from Webster University. In 2009, she became an educator within the Pulaski County Special School District, where she served for seven years. In 2016, Mrs. Williams joined the Bryant School District family and became a HORNET! She taught four years at Robert L. Davis Elementary and obtained her Specialist Degree in Educational Leadership in May of 2020. Within one month of graduation, Mrs. Williams became the Building Learning Specialist for Hill Farm Elementary and served in that role for the 2020-2021 school year.
In addition to education, Mrs. Williams enjoys vacationing and spending time with loved ones. She is ecstatic about joining the Bryant Elementary Family! She is certainly looking forward to working alongside BES Building Principal, Mark Scarlett, and serving the teachers/staff, students, and families of Bryant Elementary.
