Principal's Message

August 2023

 

Dear Bryant Families,

I am humbled, honored, and extremely grateful to be coming to Bryant as your new Principal. Everything about this Bryant Community gives me so much hope and excitement about our upcoming years together. Your students have been doing such great work. I can’t wait to meet everyone and get started!

I have spent my professional career working with students at all grade levels in traditional and alternative schools. Most recently, I was the Assistant Principal at Lincoln Elementary School where I created meaningful relationships with families, students and staff and focused on positive behavioral interventions. My heart will always be in the classroom and this an exciting opportunity for me to serve as an instructional and equity driven leader. 

My decision to become an administrator came from a strong desire to make a positive impact on an entire school community. As the Principal, I will work diligently with our faculty and staff to carry out the vision and mission of Bryant Elementary School. I believe that as a school, we play a fundamental role in positioning students for future success. I am committed to working closely with teachers, parents, and community members to ensure our scholars achieve their full potential and are prepared for the next phase of their educational career.

Attendance is one of our main focuses for the 2023-2024 school year. The more students are in school, the more they learn. If your student has 3 or more unverified or unexcused absences throughout the school year this is considered a truancy and a letter will be generated on your ParentVUE. We do not want this to happen, please call our front office to verify all of your student’s absences.

I can’t wait to meet each and every one of you in person! If throughout the course of the year you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact me via email or phone. I can be reached at mbailey3@lbschools.net or call Bryant Elementary at 562-498-3802.

I’m so excited to continue leading Bryant Elementary School towards further accomplishments, greater student achievement, and strong family and community partnerships. Go Bears!

Thank you,

Miller Bailey

Principal
