BRIDGES COMMUNITY BASED SCHOOL NORTH COUNTY CONSORTIUM

Bridges Community Based School North County Consortium is a Title I public school that is part of the Windsor Unified school district, located in Windsor, CA with about 45 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 5 teachers, Bridges Community Based School North County Consortium has a student/teacher ratio of about 9:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

The **Bridges Community Based School**, operated under the North County Consortium in Windsor, California, is a specialized educational program designed to serve students who require a more individualized and supportive learning environment than traditional comprehensive schools. Affiliated with the Windsor Unified School District, the program focuses on providing academic instruction tailored to the unique needs of students, often those who benefit from smaller class sizes, targeted behavioral support, and a highly structured, community-oriented atmosphere.

The school emphasizes a holistic approach to student success, bridging the gap between classroom instruction and social-emotional development. By participating in the North County Consortium, Bridges leverages shared regional resources to offer specialized services, including counseling and individualized education plans (IEPs). The primary goal of the institution is to foster student growth, academic recovery, and the development of essential life skills, ensuring that all students are prepared for their post-secondary pathways in a nurturing and inclusive setting.
