Bryant Elementary WELCOMES Prospective Families – 2024!

Bryant PTSA and staff welcome you to our community and hope you can attend an INFORMATIONAL NIGHT PROGRAM for you to explore Bryant as a potential school for your Kindergarten-5^th grade student in the 2024-2025 academic year.

Although there are some new families with incoming students in grades 1-5 next year very much of this Open House night is biased towards the usual annual enrollment of about 100 kinderkids. However, we expect to have a tour & Q & A focused for families sending an older student.

Some classrooms will be open (grades 1-5, teachers not present) as we consider entering Bryant a six-year experience, K through grade 5.                                       K teachers ARE present.

• When: Thursday January 18^th, 2024 at 6:00 p.m. – 7:30 p.m.
• Where: Bryant library – right on main floor as you enter the building
• Who: YOU, Bryant PTSA members, administrator, K teachers, LASER representative (on-site after-school childcare)
• What: Hear about our school, kindergarten, PTSA programs, LASER daycare, and more…
  • visit classrooms K-5, meet Kindergarten teachers.
• Why: we want you to appreciate Bryant as much as we do!!! 😊

We plan for a brief introductory program providing an overview of Bryant. Then place kinder-parents in random groups of 8-12 led by a current Bryant parent volunteer to escort you throughout the building stopping in each kindergarten room with K teachers waiting for you.😉

You will have the opportunity to speak with, listen to and ask questions of the K teachers.

Please note this is an adult-only program – the conversations, topics and explanations are all aimed at adults. – Thank you for understanding.

Bryant’s well-known NEW FAMILY NIGHT directed towards students and families enrolled at Bryant occurs in June 2024. It is full-family focused (children encouraged to attend).

Hope to see you there!
