The best part about being a student at Bronx Bridges High School is that there is a lot of support from the teachers and from the students, they help you with school work and prepare you for college. The people are really nice and kind but one negative thing is that it be really boring sometimes for students. Furthermore, it is a really great school and would recommend.
