Thank you image

We have been so fortunate to have former Bryant parent and long-time Volunteer Coordinator Ann Marie Patterson in our community. Ann Marie is retiring this week after more than 19 years as Volunteer Coordinator at Bryant. She not only supported volunteer programs, but also recruited individuals from our broader community to serve as tutors, health room staff and science fair mentors. You may have encountered Ann Marie as one of the first people to welcome you to Bryant. Or you may have worked directly with Ann Marie to get involved in the school. She went out of her way to make volunteers feel appreciated and recognized. Now we have a chance to return the favor in showing our immense gratitude to Ann Marie for her work and for fostering a robust tradition of service at Bryant.

Sending our heartfelt thanks, Ann Marie! You will be missed!

Bryant PTSA Budget Proposal & Survey Results are in!

Haiyen Tang

The PTSA Board invites you to preview the draft agenda and content for the October 13th meeting now.  You’ll find a summary of the September community survey and proposals for new PTSA standing rules and 2020-2021 budget revisions published online here.  We hope this preview provides time to consider any questions or feedback.  We welcome your thoughts and questions in advance at ptsaexec@bryantschool.org. 

In the September survey, we heard from several community members who are interested in increasing our monetary and non-monetary supports for kids furthest from educational justice in our city’s public schools.  We’ll be reflecting on this topic of resource-sharing in our Equity discussion in the upcoming October 13th meeting.  We hope that you will join us in this conversation and effort to advance equity in our district.
In the October meeting, Bryant PTSA Membership will be asked to vote on:

• Election of new officers to the Executive committee
• Revised PTSA budget for 2020-2021
• New and revised standing rules
