School Board Appreciation |
|
|
 |
Each January we recognize the service and contributions made by Bryant’s seven school board members as they work to improve the educational opportunities of every child in our district. We celebrate their countless hours of volunteer service and leadership. Our deepest appreciation is extended to Dr. Tyler Nelson, Craig Leone, Ben Lewellen, Dr. Scott Walsh, Kim Billingsley, Patrice Muldrow and Nelly Valentin. Thank you for creating opportunities for success for all our Hornets. |

Career & Academic Planning |
|
|
 |
Counselors will soon be visiting classrooms (grades 5-11) to help students plan their schedules for the next school year. It’s a process we call CAPs (Career & Academic Planning).
We have created The Cap Guide, which will help prepare your student for both college and career. Each grade level has specific information and resources. Students in 5th grade will receive a hard copy of the booklet. We encourage our parents to review the tools and spend time with your student talking about his or her academic and career goals.

Role of School Counselors |
|
|
 |
In the busy halls of our schools, there exists a small group of individuals quietly working behind the scenes, guiding, supporting, and shaping the futures of our students. These quiet heroes, who have a profound impact on our students each day, are our school counselors.
Did you know that every school, from elementary all the way through high school, has school counselors who play vital roles in our district? These dedicated professionals work daily shaping the emotional, social, and academic well-being of students. |

On April 8, 2024, a total solar eclipse will cross North America, the last in Arkansas until 2045. Expecting a large influx of visitors, Saline County officials have been working together for the past year and a half to plan for this once-in-a-lifetime event.
With the potential of major traffic and travel issues, Bryant Schools will be closed on April 8. There will be no on campus or off campus school activities on this date. We will open several of our school campuses to visitors for the eclipse; other campuses will be closed. Additional information will be shared next month. |
