Parents, we wanted to inform you that Mobile County resource officers were on our campus today conducting random searches for weapons, drugs, vapes, and cell phones not locked in Yondr pouches. This is part of our enhanced safety plan that was created to keep our schools safe and conducive to learning.
Parent, all students should have a progress report that was handed to them today to bring home to you.
Parents and students, please be reminded that phones should not be in our students hands or visible during dismissal. Once pouches are unlocked, phones should stay in bags or pockets until you leave campus.

A Huge Thank You to State Representative Mr. Chip Brown!
Today, we were honored to have Representative Chip Brown visit Alma Bryant High School and present checks to both the Alma Bryant Wrestling and Flag Football programs. These generous contributions will directly support the purchase of uniforms, assist with tournament fees, help cover travel costs, and go toward the many other expenses that come with running successful and growing athletic programs.
Representative Brown’s continued support of Alma Bryant Athletics is not only appreciated—it’s impactful. His investment in our student-athletes and their future opportunities sends a strong message that their hard work, dedication, and potential matter. For many of our students, especially those from low-income backgrounds, his support makes it possible for them to compete, grow, and represent their school with pride.
This funding goes beyond just dollars—it fuels dreams, builds confidence, and helps us provide experiences that shape young lives on and off the field or mat. Our student-athletes are incredibly grateful, and so are our coaches, families, and community.
Mr. Brown’s consistent commitment to Alma Bryant and South Mobile County does not go unnoticed. He’s more than just a public official—he’s a true champion for our youth, our schools, and our future.
From all of us at Alma Bryant Wrestling and Flag Football:
Thank you, Representative Chip Brown, for believing in our programs and helping us continue to grow.
