Bryant 5th graders will be hosting a food drive from Monday, Nov 10 to Friday, Nov 21 benefitting Pike Market Food Bank. Families can send in non-perishable goods, particularly canned fruits/vegetables, and granola/protein bars.

Pike Market Food Bank has had an increased need with impacts to SNAP as well as the Government shutdown. They’re also accepting financial donations: Pike Market Food Bank

Our cafeteria manager, Brian, was awarded the SPS All-Star Award last week!

We’re so grateful to Brian and the entire cafeteria team for all they do to keep our kids well-fed and cared for each day.

The Bryant PTSA Family Support Program is collecting funds to purchase $25 grocery cards to be donated to our sister school. Our sister school is a Title 1 elementary school in the Seattle public school district in which more than 80% of current students are from low-income families. With a week off for Thanksgiving break, high grocery prices, and SNAP benefits cut off due to the federal government shutdown the need is as great as ever. Please consider supporting local students at our sister school whose families need extra assistance buying food. Your donation will be used to purchase grocery cards.

Our goal is 100 $25 gift cards. The deadline for this donation drive is 11/19.

Thank you to those who have it in their budget and heart to contribute!

Thanks to everyone who was able to participate in Walktober Wednesdays!

We passed out hundreds of walk/roll incentives to students during October!

And special thanks to our volunteers who made it happen!

Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate the life of Anne Aliverti. The service was a beautiful tribute, filled with heartfelt stories about Anne as a friend, mother, wife, teacher, and colleague. The service concluded with a touching rendition of Annie’s Song by John Denver, beautifully performed by Bryant‘s own Ms. Fahselt, Mr. Dickerson, and Mr. Garlid. We were honored to have Mayor Bruce Harrell in attendance, who proclaimed October 18, 2025 as Anne Aliverti Day — a lasting recognition of her impact on our community and her place in Seattle’s history.

To honor Anne’s Legacy, her family invites you to support Page Ahead and help bring the joy of reading to every child.
