Hello Bryant families,

Can you believe it? We are almost half way through the 1st trimester. Time has sure flown by. If you have questions regarding classroom procedures, work load, or anything school related, please be sure to contact your child's teacher. As we progress through the year remember that everyone has areas of strength and weakness. There may be some content areas that may come easily for your little one while others may present some difficutly. Maintain open communication with the teacher regarding how you can work collaboratively together to ensure the support your child requires is being offered. We are here to help.

Two decades ago the US was faced with one of the most deadliest attacks on US soil.

Since the attacks, the US has remained diligent in our efforts to ensure our values as a democratic nation remain in tack. We will never forget all of our fellow countrymen that succumbed to the tragic event on September 11, 2001. Let our effort to lead with love, kindness, and understanding be our way of honoring thier memory.

As always, thank you so much for being such wonderful partners. Have a fantastic week!

This month, as part of our social-emotional development discussions, classes will discuss what it means and what it looks like to demonstrate diligence. Please join us by talking with your child about demonstrating diligence and never giving up, even when things appear to be difficult.

Bryant is a small community school with no parking lot and no designated pull through area. This presents a huge challenge therefore, it is important that everyone follow all posted signage to ensure a consistent flow of traffic. We understand that some parents like to walk their child to the front gate while others prefer to transition in/out quickly. If you would like to walk your child to the gate, please do so however do not park your vehicle in an area that is marked with white, red, or blue curbing. I recognize it may be an inconvenience for some to park a little further and walk to the gate but given the layout of our school site it is a task we must undertake.

Any citations that are issued to drivers will be the sole responsibility of the driver. Neither the school site or district is responsible to resolve or dispute the citation. Thank you so much for your continued cooperation.

We are so happy to welcome volunteers on campus to offer support or to attend field trips. This is a great way to ensure the school site, community, and families are all connected. If you are interested is being a volunteer, some important information you will need to know is captured below:

• All volunteers are required to be checked into RAPTOR Visitor System & be cleared via the Volunteer Clearance List for 2023-2024. If you are not on the Volunteer Clearance List you will not be allowed on campus for any reason. Volunteers will not be allowed on campus prior to 8:10 am unless cleared by administration in advance of the visit.
  
• The Adult Volunteer Participation process is a 4-6 week process (may be longer if there is a fingerprint processing delay).
• Be sure to inform staff of the timeline to acquire clearance for scheduled events and field trips.
• All chaperones, no matter the duration of the field trip or school event, must be fingerprinted and complete the process

Volunteer clearance renewal:

• To complete the renewal process (volunteers previously cleared during the 2022-2023 school year) all volunteers are required to complete the annual online volunteer training and confirmation form
• Tier 1 volunteers, previously cleared during the 2022-2023 school year may renew their Tier 1 clearance for the 2023-2024 school year.
