Dear Bryan Road Elementary Families:

November Holidays

We will celebrate Veterans Day on Monday, November 11th and Thanksgiving on Wednesday, November 27th through November 29th. There will be no school for students and staff.

Third Grade Explorers

The Wake County AlG Program supports a unique nurturing component, 3rd Grade Explorers. The AIG teacher works in partnership with third grade teachers to plan a variety of experiences designed to elicit high academic performance. Several times during the first part of the year, the AlG teacher works in the classroom with students. The AIG and the classroom teachers assess student performance during these experiences.

Third Grade parents are invited to join Jessie Hollinger, AIG teacher, for a virtual parent information session on Thursday, November 14th at 8:15 am. Meeting link: https://meet.google.com/ohh-jbhe-rke
