Open Quote We have had a wonderful experience at Bryant! The teachers are amazing. Wonderful and supportive community - teachers, administration, and families. Even through the pandemic teachers have gone above and beyond to keep kids learning and safe! Close Quote

Open Quote Bryant is a community center, not a school. The kids there test high because of the education that they get from their parents not from their professors. My child attended kindergarten and 1st grade there.
In kindergarten they play with "educational" computer games sponsored by kellogs.
In first grade he came back at the end of the school year with almost empty science and math journals. The journals had stickers that said "great job" and "terrific".
The teacher followed the curriculum but never made sure the kids were learning or did their work.
My child scored a 96% in math 99% in reading n his MAP test. I guarantee that it was not because of the education he gets at Bryant elementary. On top of that the school principal does not like to talk about those issues and will do everything possible to avoid meeting with concern parents. Close Quote
