Parents,
Administration has been closely monitoring the possibility of severe weather from Hurricane Laura. The latest update from the Office of Emergency Management early this morning shows the time for the storm’s arrival in our area moved to earlier in the afternoon than expected in previous predictions.
Due to the possibility of severe weather, school will dismiss at 1:00 today.
We ask parents to watch for messaging about the status of tomorrow (Friday). Current predictions indicate that the severe weather will have moved out by tomorrow; however, if there are power outages, flooding, and/or road closures, we will have a remote learning day. Please check email, social media platforms, app and/or our website for updates.
Today, teachers will provide students with assignments for tomorrow in the event a remote learning day is needed. Teachers will provide paper assignments for those students who do not have internet access or devices.
Again, a decision has not been made about tomorrow. We just want parents to be aware in case arrangements need to be made for childcare.
Tomorrow is a BIG day for our LITTLE Hornets. To help you and your child have a great start, all kindergarten students will begin school at 9am on Thursday.
Don't miss any of the action ... STAY ON Bryant Athletics by staying connected!
JUST IN: ACT is offering two additional test dates: October 17 & 25.
No late fees for September ACT dates. Registration deadline is August 31. Register today!
