The Heart Behind Bridges of Promise Academies
Students and families are the heart behind Bridges of Promise Academies (“BPA”).
Watch their voices come to life and and join us in inspiring confidence, creativity, and joy through project-based learning.
Our Question: Why do you like doing projects at school instead of worksheets?
Press play to hear what kids have to say.
At Bridges of Promise Academies (“BPA”), students don’t just read about ideas. With our 12-week, hands-on projects, they apply learning to real problems, create solutions, and share their ideas and designs with others.

Our Question: What would you want your classroom to have that makes you excited to learn?
Press play to hear what kids have to say.
Every child finds excitement in learning in their own way. Some thrive on math or reading, others on classroom pets or creative projects. At BPA, small groups, one-on-one time, and enrichment activities help meet each student where they are, ensuring every child is both supported and challenged.

Our Question: If you could design your dream school, what would it look like?
Press play to hear what kids have to say.
In project-based learning, kids explore ideas, test solutions, and bring their creative visions to life, just like these students imagining their dream schools could have everything from a football field to a cat-shaped cafeteria.

Parent Voices:
“As a mom, I just want my kids and all kids in our community to have the chance to thrive. A second charter school means more choices, smaller waitlists and more opportunity for every family.
Let’s come together and support this new school, so every child in Menifee can get the education they deserve.”

“As parents we see every day how our children learn best, by building, creating, working together.
In those early years of elementary school, kids thrive when they can use their hands and imagination and not just sit with worksheets and tests.
— (Video) Jaqueline Gregory, Menifee
As a mother with three children thriving in charter schools, I see firsthand the value of having options.
This is an important issue that will affect all families in our community, and I urge open, balanced discussion that prioritizes students over funding.”
— Parent, Menifee
“Right now, families like mine often feel limited in school choices. We have turned to private school, 20 minutes away from our home, which can be costly, just to find the type of education we want for our children.
Bridges of Promise Academies would provide that same innovative, engaging education without the financial barrier.”
— Parent, Canyon Lake
“Our children deserve access to educational options that meet their unique needs, inspire their curiosity, and prepare them for the future.
I am proud to stand behind this charter school and encourage the Board to approve and support BPA’s opening.”
