The district has already purchased food for the Remote Learning Day on Monday. Due to uncertainly with the weather, we are sending the shelf stable meal kits (one breakfast, one lunch) home with students today.

STAY ALERT: We are carefully monitoring the winter weather. As soon as any decisions have been made, we will notify parents as quickly as possible via the following:
• Phone calls, text, email via the mass notification system
• District and School Social Media (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram)
• Notification through the Bryant Public Schools app
• District website: bryantschools.org

Kindergarten celebrated the 100th day by writing about what they have learned in 100 days and what they would look like at 100 years old. They also counted their 100 items into groups of 10.
REMINDER: A Remote Learning Day is coming up on Monday, February 15. All students (K-12) will learn at home.
Mayor Allen Scott has declared February 12, 2021, as “Bryant Hornet Day” to honor the accomplishments of the Hornet coaches, staff, and players in winning three consecutive 7A State Football Championships.
The day, 2-12, was chosen for the mantra of the Hornets, #Be212. The 212 vision signifies the effort and work ethic it takes to be the best at what you do, a message we can all embrace.
Join us in showing your Hornet Pride by wearing Bryant Blue and/or Hornet fan gear on Friday, February 12.
Take a photo and post on your social media accounts, using #Be212, #HornetPride, or #BryantHornetDay. Be sure to tag us in your post! We also encourage you to email photos to info@bryantschools.org. Watch for your photo to appear on our district social media channels.

Kindergarten classes predicted if the groundhog would see his shadow. They wrote about their prediction and why they made that prediction. On Tuesday, they wrote about Phil’s prediction.
Bryant Schools do not accept deliveries at school on Valentine’s or any other special days. We love our Hornets, too, but deliveries interrupt the learning taking place in our classrooms.
Please share gifts with your children at home. Have a Happy Valentine’s Day!
If your child will be five (5) years of age on or before August 1 and lives in the Bryant School District, he/she is ready to be a Hornet! ONLINE kindergarten registration for the 2021-22 school year will be March 9-11.

The kindergartners have been learning about Arkansas this week, and they spent some time writing about what they have learned.
Kindergarten loves having “Frosty’s Friends” fill up our hallway. Each one is unique and many represent the student’s personality.
REMINDER: Bryant Schools will be closed on Monday, January 18 in observance of Dr. Martin Luther King Day.
Each day a kindergarten student gets to lead the standard sound cards during our Fundations lesson. They say the letter/keyword/sound, and the rest of the students repeat. This is a good daily review of the lowercase letters and sounds.

Each month we have a school wide focus word. We wanted to share the words we have been focusing on this school year. We discuss each word and practice using it or demonstrating it throughout our day.
District and school offices will be closed December 21 - January 1 for Christmas break. Students return to school on Monday, January 4.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
