About Us
Mission/Vision
Bridges Preparatory Academy offers an inclusive, rigorous, college-ready and trauma-sensitive education that provides ALL students with the academic and social-emotional skillset to excel in high school and beyond.
Bridges Preparatory Academy students are confident, disciplined, proactive leaders who will successfully transition into institutions of higher learning and become integral and influential “agents of change” in society. As responsible citizens who understand and participate in the democratic process and recognize its value in a global context, BPA students develop a foundation in critical thinking skills of application, analysis, synthesis and evaluation. BPA students cultivate attributes critical for all 21st century learners: communication, technology utilization, collaboration, critical evaluation, opportunity evaluation, and emotional intelligence.
Counseling Support
Bridges Preparatory Academy has a full-time Counselors on staff and a full-time Psychologist. Our intent at Bridges is to serve those students that have not found success in traditional District schools and those who already have left, or will leave the District in search of an alternative, and those who will leave school altogether. For these students, and others who simply seek a more personalized, student-centered education, we endeavor to help them grow psychosocially over the beginning of their crucial adolescent years so that they develop the resiliency and motivation they need to persist in their schooling.
Enrollment Process
Bridges Preparatory Academy provides an open enrollment, tuition-free public school. BPA admits all pupils who wish to attend the school up to enrollment capacity. Enrollment to the Charter School shall be open to any resident of the State of California but there are no specific admission requirements for the school (e.g., minimum grade point average, test scores, discipline records, etc.).
Parents and students admitted to the school are requested to attend an orientation session to review school policies and procedures and learn about the opportunities provided by the school, but their attendance or lack of attendance does not impact their student’s admission.
Academic Programs
Our highly personalized, student-centered model includes Individual Learning Plans for every student; data-driven differentiated instruction including online adaptive learning programs, project-based and problem-based collaborative learning; daily 90-minute Learning Labs (four days/week) for real-time intervention and support for all students, including English Learners and students with disabilities; double block Math in 6th grade and double block ELA in 7th grade; daily Advisory all three years with social-emotional learning via the acclaimed Way of Council program and personalized one-on-one support from our advisors and counselors, who will “loop” with students for three years to ensure students are well-known; a Multi-Tiered System of Support for academic and behavioral support and intervention with PBIS in our trauma-sensitive model; and more
