The mission of Bridges Therapy Program is to assist all students to participate and gain independence in all facets of school life. By collaborating with all team members, including therapists, teachers, administration, and parents, we can support the development of the functional skills our students need to be successful in the school environment. The therapy team focuses on the needs of each individual student to create realistic and achievable goals in the different areas of the school day.
