Boosterthon DanceFit

Time to get our dance on!! Our Buccaneers will be dancing to raise money for our school on Thursday, 10/15, at 2 pm. Teachers will share the Bryan Road DanceFit link for your family to join the fun! All students will participate in the Bryan Road Virtual Dance Fit, regardless of financial participation.


This Thursday is also the last night to accept new pledges! Our goal is to raise $11,000 to support classrooms and student learning by funding teacher grants and we are so close! This year more than ever, we need additional funds to provide an excellent educational experience for all of our students. We completely understand if your family is not in a position to financially support the school right now. You can still be involved by SHARING our fundraiser with friends and extended family online at fun-run.com. We are so thankful for your unwavering support registering your children, sharing the link and donating!


You're Invited to our Fall Festival!

Safe Return to School

Safe Return to School

As we prepare to safely welcome our Buccaneers back to in-person instruction, we want you and your family to feel prepared to do the same. As you may expect, school will look a little different than it has in the past. Talking about some of these differences with your child will help as we transition back:


* All students and staff will have their temperature taken before entering the building.

* All students and staff will wear face coverings.

* Students will be socially distanced (or spread out) in the classrooms.

* Students will stay in their classrooms rather than traveling through the building for specials.

* Students will need to wash/sanitize their hands throughout the day!
