"The Bridge Academy is about more than just earning college credits while in high school. The Bridge Academy is a program designed to prepare students for success in careers and/or in college after high school graduation. Our program is based on the beliefs that high school students should:

• Make a career plan before investing money and time in education and training after high

school

Develop employable skills while in high school

• Connect classroom learning to real world experiences
• Acquire the skills to be successful in college
• Earn useful and transferable college credits while in high school

It is our goal that each Bridge Academy student leave high school with a career strategy that will save them money and time, with not only college credits but also with the skills necessary to be successful in college and with employable skills to sustain them along the way. "
