This week, Collegeville lit up with GREEN for “Wear Green Wednesday”! 💚 We proudly wore our school color to show unity and support as part of our “Start with Hello” week. It was a beautiful reminder of how small gestures can build big connections. From smiles in the hallway to high-fives on the playground, we’re all about promoting positive relationships at CES—and Wednesday was a shining example of that!

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.
🌟✨ Kindergarten is on the MOVE! ✨🌟
Our youngest learners have been busy growing their brains, building friendships, and becoming part of our school family 💛
📚 They’re leveling up in Lexia and earning Golden Tickets for showing kindness, effort, and responsibility!
🧪 In science, they’ve been making predictions and testing them using the nursery rhyme Humpty Dumpty—yes, eggs were involved, and yes, it was awesome 🥚💥
📝 They’ve learned what a contract is and created their very own Class Social Contract—a shared promise to take care of ourselves, each other, and our space 🤝
✍️ Students are practicing how to hold a writing utensil correctly, and learning how to work in a group—taking turns, sharing ideas, and cheering each other on.
Every day, they’re not just learning—they’re becoming a school family. One golden ticket, one cracked egg, and one kind word at a time 💫

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.
