Our oldest is in Kindergarten and the school is great so far. She is finishing kindergarten in a few months and she can read pritty hard books already. I am amazed on how well the kids do there. It was difficult to even get all the ABC's learned and numbers. She is counting to hundreds already.

I have 3 children that have attended the Bryant School District since Kindergarten. We now have 1 of those in college. This school district is the best by far. The childern come first in the schools and the community. Whenever the school is in need, the people always come through. The curriculum is great and the teachers are very good. The school has grown with the community building new schools and gyms and adding new extra curriculum whenever needed. What ever the children need, you can count on them getting whenever they need it. Wether it is tutoring, counseling, teacher conferences, it's always there when you need it. An example of the schools constant help would be the new edline program. It allows you to view your childs grades online on a daily basis and keep in contact with their teachers. It's a great place.
