Principal’s Message

Dear Bryant Elementary Families,

I am a proud MPS high school graduate of Riverside University High School as well as my own two children being alumni of RUHS too. I have had the pleasure of teaching in the classroom for over 21 years and being an administrator for just under 4 years. I’ve walked the walk and plan on doing the courageous work it takes to move our scholars towards achievement.

I am grateful and honored to be the principal at Bryant Elementary since 2020. My staff and I are eager to engage in the important work with you and our scholars to be successful socially and academically.

On behalf of the staff at Bryant Elementary, we are proud to welcome you all! We are dedicated to building positive relationships with our parents, students, and community partners. We recognize that to be successful in school, our children need support from both the home and school. As partners, we share the responsibility for our children’s success and want you to know that we will do our very best to carry out our responsibilities. We ask that you guide and support your child’s learning by ensuring that he/she:

  • Attends school daily and arrives on time, ready for the day’s learning experience
  • Completes all homework assignments given by teachers
  • Reads daily to develop a love for reading and to improve literacy skills
  • Shares school experiences with you so that you are aware of his/her school life
  • Informs you if he/she needs additional support in any area or subject
  • Aware that you expect him/her to succeed in school and go on to college or a two-year certification/training program for entrepreneurship.

Please consider joining our school SEC and take advantage of opportunities to volunteer as our students can greatly benefit from your involvement and contributions to the school’s programs and its operations.

On behalf of our wonderful staff, we thank you for your support and look forward to meeting you.

Yours in Service,

Tiffaney Hollowell
Principal of Bryant Elementary School
