A Message from Our Principal, Mrs. Andrell Howell-Bryant

Welcome to the 2025-2026 school year!

​

I am Andrell Bryant, and I am honored to serve as the Principal of Benjamin Franklin K-8 Center. As a proud graduate of Miami-Dade County Public Schools, I understand the power of a strong educational foundation, and I am committed to ensuring every student at our school has the opportunity to thrive.

​

I am so excited to welcome our “Tigers” to another year of greatness! For those who are returning, welcome back. For those joining us for the first time—hold on to your seats—because you are in for a “BFKGR-8” learning experience!

​

At Benjamin Franklin K-8 Center, we provide students with a learning environment where they are both academically challenged and socially prepared. We are proud to be an A-rated school, a recognition that reflects the hard work and dedication of our students, staff, and families.

​

We are committed to developing all of our students into leaders of tomorrow. We will do this by "Educating from Root to S.T.E.M.—Cultivating Successful, Trailblazing, and Exemplary Master Minds."

​

Thank you for being a part of our vibrant school community. I look forward to an exciting year of growth, learning, and continued excellence.
