On September 11, Patriot Day gives us time to reflect on the devastating terror attacks that took nearly 3,000 lives. We commemorate those we lost and give thanks to the brave first responders who put their lives on the line. #NeverForget #911 #PatriotDay
Administration has been made aware of rumors of gun violence at Bryant High School. We understand parents are very concerned. We take all matters of safety very seriously.
School Resource Officers and Bryant Police have been actively investigating. At this time, they have found no evidence of the rumors to be true. The rumor alleged that two individuals were coming to the school to do harm. One of the individuals does not attend BHS, but is in another district which confirmed the student to be in class at this time. The other student who was named is at school and has been searched.
Law enforcement has determined that the threat is NOT credible. As a matter of precaution, BHS will have additional security personnel at lunch and on campus the remainder of the school day.
