History
The Bridge School began forming in early 2010 when a group of parents met to talk about how to create a cooperative elementary school for their children and community. That fall, four families piloted the first model as a cooperative homeschooling group by teaching together and finding adventurous field trips to expand the classroom. In 2011 we hired a full time teacher and opened our doors to the public, teaching 16 students in a K-2 multi-age classroom. By the end of 2012 we had become a 501c3 Non-Profit organization. We have now honed our purpose and vision toward a progressive educational model. We have expanded to two multiage classes serving ages 5-10 and continue to enjoy active parent involvement, expanded our staff and continue to learn what it means to work together as a community for our children's education. We are a Washington State Approved school.
