Burien Cooperative Education Project

Our Story

The Bridge School began in early 2010 when a group of dedicated parents came together to create a cooperative elementary school for their children and the community. In the fall of that year, four families piloted a cooperative homeschooling model, teaching together and organizing adventurous field trips to enhance learning. By 2011, a full-time teacher was hired, and the school opened its doors to the public, welcoming 16 students in a K-2 multi-age classroom. By the end of 2012, The Bridge School became a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, expanding to four multi-age classes serving children aged 5-11. The school thrives on active parent involvement and a commitment to progressive education, continually learning what it means to work together for the benefit of children.
