Bridges Area Learning Center

This school is truly amazing, I can say that from experience because I just graduated early from there after three years of going. Without this school I didn't think I was going to make it past 16, I can proudly say I am 18 and love life. Going to this school made me feel welcomed and taken care of in a school setting for the first time. Not only did I have great experiences but I feel like I gained a family! This new building gives the school to grow so much more and it is. I would recommend this school 100% or at the very least give it a visit, the staff is amazing and I'm sure you'd love them if you met them!

Bridges ALC was a very positive experience for my son, who had challenges in the crowded high school. The smaller classes and individualized instruction were critical to their successful graduation. The staff is approachable, flexible, and hard working. Also, the new building is very well-designed, with flexibility in learning styles built in.

I've gone to many schools trying to find something that worked for me and this is the only one that worked. This school honestly is perfect and beautiful in every way.

Staff
All of the teachers and staff here are loving and respectful to all students, they care about each and every one individually to make sure that they stay on track and graduate. I for one and all of my friends here have bonded with the teachers to create a friendship that inspired and motivated me to graduate and make the best future for myself.

Environment
The environment here is super friendly and a lot more quiet and calmer than other schools. It's always very clean and organized. There's many places to go work on your school work in peace such as the small library and the commons. The decorations are all peaceful and beautiful and there's even a shelf in the lunch room of give away things such as canned goods, pasta, toiletries, and clean clothing for those in need to take home to their family.

Education
The educating system here is a million times better than any school I've heard of, the best part is that they don't assign homework. All assignments are done in class so that you can work one-on-one with other students and teachers.

Peers
Just like all schools, there are groups of friends, but the difference is that in this school, since it is smaller that most, almost everyone is each others friend. We all get along and we all help each other. There's therapy groups on Mondays and Wednesdays to share what's going on in your life and to speak with counselors and friends.

If you're struggling in a normal school environment, if your school is too crowded, too loud, or you just can't find any inspiration, I definitely recommend this school. I'm thankful to have gotten the chance to change my life around and experience such a great school. Thank you Bridges Staff.

This is a special school for kids who are struggling with school, have lots going on, are lost, or who are behind. I am so glad I made a choice of going here, it truly made a difference. Teachers and staff are super nice and actually want to get to know you and help you out. They know everyone by name and their story, nobody is left out and you feel truly needed there. I would reccomend going on their website to get more information!
