PARENTS OF 3RD-5TH GRADE STUDENTS
Should your child be evaluated for gifted services?
Students who require gifted education often think about topics in different ways from their peers and make connections their peers do not.
Students identified as gifted require services from a gifted certified teacher to support academic growth, social emotional needs, and provide enrichment and extensions beyond the grade level classroom. For additional information or to request a referral for your child, visit our website:

Our district e-newsletter, Success Happens Here, is one way we share important information with our parents and community. Please visit one of the links below:

School will be back in session on Friday. We look forward to seeing all of our Hornets tomorrow.

Due to continued weather conditions and icy roads, Bryant Public Schools will be closed today (Thursday, February 2).

The decision regarding school on Thursday, February 2 will be made in the morning. Our administrators will be driving and assessing road conditions in the early morning hours. If school is closed tomorrow, families should expect to be notified around 5am by phone call, text, app, email, and social media.
