Welcome to the 2024-2025 school year! Speaking on behalf of the entire Bridges staff, we are thrilled to continue with our future-focused vision, while strengthening our partnership with you in equipping our students with the skills they need to thrive in the ever-changing 21st-century workplace. Our eight-year school journey has been highlighted by remarkable student growth and success, driven by innovation, a consistent student-focus, and a passion for excellence. We look forward to building on this solid foundation as we leap forward into the future.

Over the past eight years, the staff at Bridges Elementary School has provided a top-notch educational experience for all students. Each year, Bridges Elementary School has proudly maintained an "A" rating from the Arizona Department of Education and is currently ranked among the top 15 elementary schools in Arizona by the U.S. News and World Report.

In the 2024-2025 school year, we will continue to ensure our students receive the high-quality education they deserve, preparing them for our evolving world. We are committed to providing meaningful learning experiences that promote creativity, adaptability, and collaboration through the use of educational best practices, technology, project-based learning, and S.T.E.A.M. applications. Our teachers are exceptionally dedicated to their craft and are invested in our students' success now and in the years to come.

On behalf of all the staff members at Bridges Elementary School, we look forward to the opportunity this year to catalyze the growth of your learners into the future leaders of tomorrow.
