WHAT PEOPLE SAY
April B.
Parent of a 1st & 3rd Grader
Bridgewater has put me at ease as a parent. The teachers and staff are aware of what’s going on with the kids. I haven’t met a teacher or staff member who doesn’t know my boys by name. I love the small classes because they are getting the attention they deserve to learn at their best. The communication at the school is top-tier. I am glad my boys are a part of this school. Thanks for all you do!

Parent of a 4th Grader
There are so many great things that I could say about Bridgewater. Our daughter has been going here since Kindergarten and is now in the 4th grade. I am thankful every day when I drop her off for this school and the entire staff. Their true focus is on the kids and making sure they reach their full potential. Every teacher knows and cares about each one of the students. Not only caring for the kids' education and mental well-being, they care about their safety. I couldn't imagine not only our daughter but us as parents not being a part of the Bridgewater family!

Parent of a Kindergartener
My daughter started her kindergarten year at Bridgewater Academy, and it’s been AMAZING so far! All of the staff love her, and I love that everyone knows her name. We had a little issue with bullying, and the school was on top of it to make sure it was over! The school gives such a home away from home feeling. I can’t wait for Paisley to attend until her 8th-grade year!
