History

On July 1, 2004 the Paron School District merged into the Bryant School District. Because the state government considered Paron an isolated rural area, it gave an additional $838,000 to the Bryant district. Due to low student populations and the resulting complications, the district closed Paron High School in 2006, and Paron Elementary School in 2015.
In 2011, Bryant School District and its high school were recognized in the AP District of the Year Awards program in the College Board's 2nd Annual Honor Roll that consisted of 367 U.S. public school districts that simultaneously achieved increases in access to AP® courses for a broader number of students and improved the rate at which their AP students earned scores of 3 or higher on an AP Exam.
