When I volunteer in my children’s classrooms, when I share a very close connection with their teachers, when the principal and other parent volunteers know and call my children by their names, what a tremendous difference that makes in my kids’ learning, motivation and confidence!

They see how important they are; they feel empowered to do their best, and that will serve them well for a lifetime, no doubt about it. That and more is what Bridges offers to our kids in Conejo Valley, not to mention the highly qualified, experienced, passionate teachers who will be teaching at this new charter school.

My children will be taught as individuals and not as statistics; their teachers will be investing their time and talents in making sure our kids will grow to become emotionally sound adults, mentoring in their social and emotional development as well as in academics.

I’m so thankful for being in this community, and I’m excited to see one more wonderful option open for us here in the Conejo Valley.
