Our Mission

BridgeAtSchools, Inc. is dedicated to using the game of bridge to make a positive difference in the education and development of children and youth.  Beginning with school research pilots to quantify bridge’s comprehensive contribution to math, critical thinking, and social skills, BridgeAtSchools, Inc. develops approved curricula which are beneficial and enjoyable to all students.  Local bridge communities supplement school instruction with competitions and adult mentoring in supportive, welcoming environments.  By providing a life-long learning opportunity which helps youth grow to become confident, competent, respectful citizens instilled with a strong sense of community, commitment to excellence, and compassion for others, this universally-loved game will occupy an important role in our country, enabling it to endure for generations.

Our Focus

Our primary focus is classroom instruction, complemented by related after-school clubs.  The purpose of our programming is not to develop junior bridge champions but rather to motivate and engage children and foster social, emotional, and intellectual growth.
