BHS is offering the PSAT exam on October 17. Sophomores and juniors wishing to take the exam must register by August 31. To register, go to https://tinyurl.com/BryantPSATNMSQT.
Do you want to be recognized and celebrated for your high academic achievements?! Do you want to earn some of the largest scholarships offered to college freshmen?! Being recognized by the College Board and National Merit Corporations is one of the most coveted honors given to college going high school students. To qualify, students must take the PSAT their junior year and achieve a high score. Sophomores are also welcome to take the PSAT to help prepare them for their junior year exam.
Braden Lisowe, a sophomore at Bryant High School, was one of two local students to receive the Bronze Congressional Medal presented by Congressman French Hill.
The Congressional Medal is the highest award that can be bestowed on a youth by Congress and is awarded for excellence in volunteering, personal development, fitness, and exploration.
Braden is on the A/B Honor Roll and a member of the award-winning BHS Camerata choir. He enjoys being an active member of the central Arkansas theater community, performing in over 30 shows over the past 5 years. When he's not busy on stage or at school he can often be found in the kitchen with Braden's Bites, his meal prep business that helps him raise money for camps and travel and also donates meals to those in need. Congratulations on this remarkable achievement, Braden! #BryantProud
