Executive Director - Bridge Boston Featured
MISSION Bridge Boston Charter School students will thrive in a challenging, joyful, inclusive K1-8 public school community that values close partnerships with families, and a focus on the whole child. Our students will develop the skills necessary to excel academically in rigorous high schools, reach their individual potentials, and view themselves as creators of their own futures. Through full-service programming, Bridge Boston Charter School will work to remove the health and social obstacles that hinder student learning.

Today the school serves over 300 students in K1 to 7th grades, and next year will reach maturity, serving 335 students in K1-8th grades.      Three core beliefs guide Bridge Boston’s work: Students do best in a rigorous academic environment that teaches basic skills and inspires a love of learning. Students will only succeed if the school plays an active role in eliminating barriers , working closely with families and partner organizations to meet each student’s health and social service needs. Students will thrive if they live and learn in a nurturing community where they are respected as individuals, where they are encouraged to explore the world around them, and where their efforts are fully supported. Bridge Boston actively recruits some of the most economically disadvantaged and under resourced families in the city, students and parents who might not pursue a charter school education, and could be at risk in a traditional public school. Bridge Boston’s robust social-emotional program is designed with an eye to supporting students who have experienced trauma in their homes and communities. A resource hub for students and families, Bridge Boston partners with such well-known service providers as Boston Medical Center, Home for Little Wanderers, Horizons for Homeless Children, South Bay Mental Health and Forsyth Dental, who offer the wrap around services that Bridge Boston families need to thrive. A true community school, Bridge Boston sought its permanent home within the Roxbury/Dorchester/Mattapan communities where many of its students live, and moved into its new building in Roxbury in August 2017. Since then, Bridge Boston has been building strong relationships with its new neighbors, and strengthening its ties with families and caregivers, frequently welcoming them into the community to participate in parent dinners, workshops, potlucks and concerts.  Bridge Boston is a Commonwealth Charter School, having been granted its original charter by the state Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) in 2011, and its five-year renewal in February, 2016.  The school’s Board of Trustees has direct oversight of the school and is responsible to DESE to ensure that the school lives into its mission and charter, and remains financially viable.  In this capacity, the school board approves annual budgets, hires and oversees the school’s Executive Director, approves all relevant school policies and procedures, reviews progress to academic and mission delivery goals, and provides input to the long-term strategic direction of the school. Bridge Boston also has a Foundation that is a 501c non-profit entity created for fundraising to support the school. The following information provides a view into Bridge Boston’s student demographics: Grades K1 through 7th grade 21% of students are currently or have been homeless 24% are English Language Learners 22% have special learning needs 68% qualify for free or reduced lunch, 100% receive free lunch 99% students of color 24% have been supported by the Department of Children & Families 100% have unlimited potential Learn more about Bridge Boston here .
