THE BRIDGE ACADEMY, A NON-TRADITIONAL PUBLIC EDUCATION VIRTUAL/BLENDED PROGRAM OPTION FOR BLOUNT COUNTY STUDENTS

The Blount County School System offers a non-traditional public education for eligible 9-12 students provided through The Bridge Academy. Courses are facilitated by highly qualified, certified teachers through high-quality online curriculum aligned to the ALSDE-CCRS.

ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA
The Bridge Academy courses and programs are free for enrolled full-time students meeting the residency requirements of Blount County Schools. Students in grades 9-12 who live in areas zoned for Blount County Schools but who are not currently enrolled, may enroll in their zoned school and be served through The Bridge Academy virtually as long as they meet all eligibility requirements of both the local school and the Academy.

Blount County students may also take virtual courses on a part-time basis from their local schools if approved by the counselor and principal.
