About Seven Bridges School
Philosophy
Seven Bridges School believes that accommodating for the special needs of many bright learners does not mean a dumbing down of academics. The philosophy of analysis and synthesis thinking lends itself to enrichment rather than acceleration, thus the glossing over of knowledge and skills can be restructured and may be taught to the learner with a greater concern for the cognitive and emotional developmental readiness stages than a concern with a standardized curriculum or calendar.
Mission
The mission of Seven Bridges is to meet the needs of students with unique and challenging learning styles by establishing a safe, supportive and positive educational setting which continually assesses expectations, provides opportunities for success, and develops within every learner strategies for smooth transitions.
Purpose
The purpose set forth by Seven Bridges School is to discover and facilitate through the learning styles of every child a basic curriculum so that he or she is able to purposefully and successfully pursue life goals

Seven Bridges School is a private school (Pre K through 12) located in Orange Park, Florida, for students recognized as having average to above average intelligence yet compromised in achieving average-to-above-average due to a learning style difference.
We are accredited by the Florida Council of Independent Schools. With such high accreditation, students receive high school credits that will travel not only to the schools and colleges within the United States but also to international institutions. Though many students stay with us for two or three years, others stay to earn a high school diploma and are eligible to attend college. We maintain ten or less students per teacher in all core classes.
Our teachers are with us because they want to make a difference for students who struggle or fail in regular school settings. Teachers and staff establish and maintain personal relationships with students through their shared breaks, lunches and school activities. This encourages students to communicate openly in a friendly environment.
Students can bring their own lunches or order out monthly from a pre-established menu. Students are grouped according to educational needs, receiving instruction in reading, language, composition, math, science, social studies, and foreign languages. Electives include art, drama, physical fitness, communication skills, fine arts studies, and computer technology as integrated across the curriculum.
