OBJECTIVE
Responsibility — the “ability to respond” effectively.
At The Bridge, our primary objective is to foster responsibility - the “ability to respond” effectively. The Bridge supports students in developing 5 core skills (the PROPS) that serve their ability to respond to life’s challenges, pursue their goals, and, most importantly, find within them what they have to offer the world around them.
