Bridge Academy is a great middle school. I am an 8th grader who's been here since 7th grade and I played basketball on the school team and was the second leading scorer averaging 15 in 8th. I have a 4.0 GPA and all the teachers here are very supportive, kind, and willing to teach whatever the circumstances are. I give it a 4/5 and greatly recommend attending here.
