I think most people would agree that the California school system is broken. This year alone we’ve undergone massive budget cuts, school closures and teacher layoffs. Our children are not getting the education they need.

This is a disaster for our children’s future and for the future of our society.

Bridges Charter School will be a learning community where teachers, parents and students partner to support the success of the students’ educational, cognitive and emotional needs.

Given the chance, Bridges Charter School will not only prove to be academically successful, but will produce independent, empowered, compassionate and globally aware citizens.

It’s my hope that Conejo Valley Unified School District chooses to support Bridges Charter School.

Our school system needs to change, and the creators of Bridges Charter School have some great ideas. Robyn Pool Thousand Oaks
