Bridlewood is a great school with a very active PTA. We have a new Principal this year, Robin Block. She is great and has brought many exciting changes to the school including a new Science Lab and a "Learning Lounge" stocked with IPads for teacher led projects that is going to be ready next year. There are many wonderful teachers, and fun after school activites including Golf, Book Club, Lego Club, Drama Club and many more.

This has been a great school for both of my kids. They love their teachers, Physical Education program and how friendly everyone is. The teachers are very helpful when your child needs help and they have both received a good education.

Great school. For the most part, the teachers are caring and highly qualified, the office staff are friendly and helpful. Principal Rogers is very visible and friendly towards parents and students and has created an environment that is conducive to learning. I have had 3 students at Bridlewood and except for one first grade teacher, I have nothing but praise for Principal Rogers and his staff.

Great school, very experienced teachers. My son is a challenge and they have created reward systems to help him stay on task while still being motivated to learn. There are also very involved parents and a number of after school clubs the kids can participate in - drama, music, volleyball, gardening - lots of fun and continued learning.

This is a fantastic school. Close knit, warm and welcoming. Kinder and 1st grade team especially are cohesive and are meshed so tightly together, the kids are part of a huge family. The teachers know all the 1st graders names. Second grade, not so much. Teachers are not as cohesive, some are isolated and have their own agendas. A few issues w/teaching styles and classroom procedures. Principal is worthless. The assistant is the backbone of this school. PTA is fantastic. SAHM and WAHDads are involved and up at the school constantly. The school is swarming with parents and volunteers at all times. The school is a perfect size, right around 900 students, and in fact just added a new wing. Tons of after school activities/extracurricular art, creative thinking groups, gardening groups, to name a few. We have had a great experience so far, with the teaching staff and asst principal.

Bridlewood Elementary is a great school. We moved to the neighborhood when my daughter was beginning the 3rd grade -- she has now moved on to middle school. The school has a well organized PTA that supports the faculty and students financially and by organizing volunteers. The PTA also sponsors an array of after school clubs and activities and has built a wonderful outdoor classroom. The student body benefits from the amazing parental involvement and community support. This is an awesome school...thanks Bridlewood for making my daughter's elementary experience one that she will always remember.

It is a great, well-run school with very professional staff. My grandchild really has improved in her math and reading skills. I give it 5 stars.
