About Bridge Builder Academy:

We are a Pre-K through 12th grade PRIVATE SCHOOL, based on a very specific PHILOSOPHY of INDIVIDUALIZED EDUCATION in which EVERY STUDENT is taught ONE ON ONE by a personal STATE CERTIFIED TEACHER at their own level.

BBA is a new kind of school... a PRIVATE SCHOOL, that specializes in individualized "Full Time" Programs, "Home School Assistance" Programs, "Supplemental Education" programs for those who need to catch up or get ahead, and "Homework Assistance" for those working in other schools already and needing a little reinforcement after hours. We are the "third option" beyond public and private schools for your child's education, and our primary goal is to blend the authenticity of individualized education with the validity of accredited curriculum and certified instruction.

We invite you to browse this website for all the details about our programs and policies, and to come tour our office and our working classrooms for one. We have flexible payment options, a prepay discount as long as you pre-pay monthly, and great REFERRAL INCENTIVES when you tell others about our amazing program, which we are confident you will.

We look forward to speaking with you about your child's unique needs!
