Student Handbook

Welcome to Bryant Middle School

This handbook was written to help you become familiar with the policies and procedures that we use to maintain a safe climate at our school. It is important that all students know, understand and appreciate the contents of this handbook.
It has useful information and will help you keep track of homework and other assignments; therefore, we expect you to take the planner to class daily and use it throughout the year. Parents and teachers can also use this book to communicate with each other. Teachers, counselors, and administration will answer questions about the contents of this handbook and/or topics that are not included.

Our motto is, “Bryant: A place where excellence, academics and responsibility are a reality.” We support this belief and expect students, teachers, administrators, parents, and the community work together. Each of us has to become truly involved and put forth his/her best effort. As a successful community of learning, everyone can make a positive difference.
Our staff cares about each student and hopes that you have a successful year.

Bobcat Responsibilities:

Safety is first It is important for your school to be a safe place. Over the years, our school has established traditions of courtesy, cooperation, friendliness, and an attitude of respect for people and property. In the event that a student needs help with self-discipline, the student will receive appropriate consequences for his/her behavior, as outlined under the Discipline Policy. The following inappropriate student behavior will result in being held responsible to the Salt Lake City School District’s Safe School Policy:

  1. Representing gang affiliation will not be tolerated on school grounds or at school sponsored activities either on or off campus.
  2. Theft, harassment and fighting will also not be tolerated.
  3. Having a weapon at school is a serious violation. Students who fight or watch fights may be suspended, even if the fight occurs off school property.
