Assistant Principal

Elizabeth Melter

Dear Bridges Parents & Community Members, 

Welcome to another exciting year at Bridges Elementary! My name is Elizabeth Melter, and I am honored to be returning for my second year as your Assistant Principal. It has been a privilege to serve this remarkable community for the last nine years, and I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to continue growing and working alongside all of you. 

Reflecting on the past year, I am proud of the strong relationships we've built, the accomplishments we've shared, and the progress we've made together. I am even more energized for the year ahead as we build upon that foundation to further support the academic and personal growth of every student. 

At Bridges, our commitment to excellence remains unwavering. Our dedicated teachers and staff continue to create a dynamic learning environment that nurtures curiosity, fosters creativity, and promotes critical thinking. Through innovative teaching practices, project-based learning, and the integration of technology and S.T.E.A.M. principles, we aim to equip our students with the tools they need to thrive in a rapidly changing world. 

We also continue to prioritize character development, weaving values such as respect, responsibility, and empathy into our daily routines. Through our positive behavior support system, we strive to cultivate a school culture where every student feels safe, supported, and empowered to be their best self—both in the classroom and beyond. 

As always, we recognize that education is a partnership. The collaboration between school and home is vital to student success, and I deeply value your ongoing support and involvement. Together, we will continue to foster an environment where every child can shine. 

I am excited for all that this new school year holds and look forward to another year of learning, growth, and shared success with each of you. 

Warm regards, 
Elizabeth Melter
