This year's National Public Health Week theme is Building Bridges to Better Health. Healthy schools equal healthy communities. Students must be healthy to be educated and must be educated to be healthy. School nurses are public health's eyes and ears for the nation's children and families. School nurses work with children, families, communities, as well as public health departments and educators. The primary goal for school nurses is to keep children safe, healthy, and ready to learn. #NPHW

As testing season begins today, we want to encourage all of our Hornets to do your very best. Show what you know!

During the March meeting, the Bryant School Board voted to change the Friday, April 23 Remote Learning Day to an onsite day. Students will now attend school in person on this day. The calendar change was made in the best interest of student learning due to the unexpected seven remote learning days taken in February. Revised calendar: https://5il.co/h9x0
