Ms. Bryant

Welcome to first grade! My name is Trisha Bryant, and I am so excited for another amazing year at Friday Harbor Elementary School. 

The 2025-2026 school year marks my 24th year as a teacher. I moved to Friday Harbor in the spring of 2020 after teaching in both Manhattan Beach, California, and Seattle. While I have taught several different grade levels (from 3rd to 12th!), I've spent most of my career teaching first grade and it is definitely my favorite. I truly believe that first grade is a magical year and I look forward to being part of your family’s first grade experience!

I’m a Washington native, born and raised in Edmonds, and a proud Husky from the University of Washington. At home, I’m a mom to two amazing daughters, Matisse and Monaco. Our family also includes two pet bunnies, Hazel and Maverick. In my free time, I love spending time laughing with family and friends, reading, being outside, playing/watching sports, doing puzzles, and traveling.

I am so grateful to be a part of the FHES community and I look forward to a fantastic year together. Here's to another great year of learning, laughter, and discovery!
