Omaha Bryan High School - 25th Anniversary and Other Changes

25th Anniversary and Other Changes

In 1993, the school celebrated its 25th anniversary with a time capsule for future students. The capsule will be opened in 2018.

From 2000 to about 2005, Bryan went through some new renovations and additions. In 2004, the school had a new section built which houses 4 new classrooms. 4 cottages are outside the building on. In 2001, 6 more were added to the right side. At that time they added a weight room to the gym. Currently they use the other side as a practice area for the schools wrestling team. In 2004 they also added 2 additional cottages on the side of the building.

As of about 2001 Bryan High became a member of the AOF ( Academy of Finance).

The school was also on a normal class schedule before fall of 1994, with classes being year-long. Block scheduling was then created, with a 13-minute "Advisement" at the start of the school day. There are now 4 blocks and Advisement with 4 lunches during 3rd block. Each block is 90 minutes long. In August 2012 8 classes a day will be added again with A & B classes. In 2007 Bryan High School once again had some new changes in and outside the school including new trees along the front of the building and stones to sit on. The library also went through changes; a section of the library was transformed into new rooms for Assistant Principals, and the entry way for the library was extended into double doors to make it easier for student entry.

In 2006 the school decided to host the graduation ceremony at the Qwest Center instead of the Omaha Civic Auditorium, due to the increasing size of the yearly senior class. In 2008, the school moved the ceremony back to the Civic Auditorium.
