Last week, 300 eighth-grade students from Bryan County Schools took part in Industry Day, a hands-on career exploration experience hosted by the Development Authority of Bryan County. Students toured local industries across the county, seeing firsthand how classroom learning connects to real-world careers in manufacturing, healthcare, finance, and skilled trades. The experience helped students explore future career pathways in CTAE and better understand opportunities available right here in Bryan County. Thank you to our industry partners—Agco, C&H Precision, Daniel Defense, Del Webb, EOM, Great Oaks Bank, Hyundai MOBIS, Hyundai TRANSYS, Orafol, St. Joseph’s/Candler, and Webstaurant, who made this meaningful experience possible.

The Bryan County School System received their College and Career Ready Performance Index (CCRPI) score based on last school years data this week. The Governor’s Office of Student Achievement (GOSA) calculates a single CCRPI score ranging from 1 to 100 for every school system in the State of Georgia. This score is intended to provide a snapshot of how each school system is performing.
Last school year, our students, staff, and community faced significant challenges, including Tropical Storm Debbie, Hurricane Helene, Hurricane Milton, and Winter Storm Enzo, all of which resulted in a substantial loss of instructional time. Despite these obstacles, they remained focused and committed to our students’ success. Rather than allowing these events to become excuses, each of them pushed forward with professionalism, purpose, and determination.
Because of their dedication, Bryan County Schools continues to rank number one in First District RESA and within the top three percent of all school systems in the State of Georgia. To put that into perspective, Bryan County Schools ranked seventh out of 180 school systems statewide, even after a significant loss of instructional time due to inclement weather that other school systems did not experience.
Congratulations to all for this monumental accomplishment!
