Please email PTSA treasurers for questions and feedback.

Source of Income

For the last 4 of the last 5 years, 60-70% of our income is from Annual Campaign, 5% from Blast, 10 – 12 % from Silent Auction, and a heavy carry over from previous years (15 – 20%).

During the 2021-2022 school year, the world was different: Bryant Blast and the Silent Auction were suspended and the truncated 2020-2021 school year provided an unusually large carry over. The Bryant PTSA plans to revive these fundraisers during the 2022-2023 school year.

Spending

In the last 5 years, 75% of our spending goes to PTSA sponsored staff positions at Bryant. 

For the previous Fiscal Year (2021-2022), to support the return to in-person learning we provided:

  • Reading and math specialists and tutors
  • Enrichment opportunities in art, music, technology, and library
  • Classroom assistance, supplies, and field trip support
  • Community-building and academic events
  • Support for our Bryant community and beyond including families & schools in need.

We continue to support these programs into the 2022-2023 school year.

 

Staff Wages

About 30% of total staff wages now goes to Math / Reading Specialists. Over the last five years, we have steadily increased our support for Math / Reading Specialists who provide intervention and extension services.

Moving into the new school year (2022-2023) and embracing the full return to in-person learning, the PSTA has once again allocated resources for:

  • Artist in Residence program
  • Instrumental Music Instructor
  • Playground Supervision
