MHS bryt Program (bridge for resilient youth in transition)
Mission
bryt, in partnership with McDaniel, helps to address inequitable practices, pedagogy, and mindsets that affect all students, and which continue to add to the practices, structures, and various factors, which may hinder students from realizing their full potential.
Vision
To efficiently coordinate resources within McDaniel and the broader community, establish effective partnerships with families, facilitate a smooth transition for each participating student, and ensure they complete the school year prepared for successful promotion to the next grade level alongside their peers.
