Bridge Elementary School

Bridge School offers a rich assortment of arts activities. ACT (Arts Created Together) is a special program run by parent volunteers to schedule music, dance, storytelling, poetry and drama events both school-wide and at each grade level, specifically geared toward curriculum. The annual Walk For The Arts in October is the fundraising event that su... pports ACT's creative arts programming. Kids collect donations and enjoy a baked goods and used-book sale, live music, and an interactive walkathon around the schoolyard. Reflections is an arts recognition program initiated by the National PTA over 30 years ago. Bridge students are invited to create works of art in any of the four categories: Literature, Music, Photography and Visual Arts. At the local level, all students are recognized for their participation, but outstanding pieces move on to be evaluated and recognized at the state level and potentially the national level. The Bridge Library is an active part of the school. Parents volunteer in the library or participate in the annual winter Book Fair that raises money for Bridge's library. Children have the opportunity to buy books when their class visits the Fair in the library, or after school hours with their parents. Every year Bridge holds a Barnes & Noble Fundraiser, an evening of story-reading by authors and teachers offsite at the Burlington Barnes and Noble and a weekend of shopping at B&N to support Bridge School.Read More
