With the safety of our students and staff our top priority, we are closely monitoring the severe weather forecast for this afternoon. Based on the timing of the potential impact, Bryant Public Schools will dismiss at the normal times.
If there is a threat of severe weather at dismissal, we will hold buses and student drivers until it is safe to allow them to leave our campuses.
If sirens go off during pick up, we will not release students. A separate space will be provided for parents to come inside the building for safety.
Parents who wish to pick up their students early may do so. Please follow check-out protocols at your child’s school.
Stay safe!

As part of breakfast, both BJH and BHS offer the Buzz Cafe coffee bar. Students can select from in house brewed iced coffee with vanilla, white chocolate, brown sugar cinnamon and caramel flavors. Coffee drinks aren’t all that’s on the menu. High end fancy pastries are also offered.
As for the price? It's included with a breakfast meal purchase.
The school coffee bars have been wildly successful. Within the first week of serving, numbers increased by 100 at the BJH. And no wonder. It’s a bargain compared to most other coffee shops. #NationalSchoolBreakfastWeek
