Bridge Academy Kicks Off Their Summer Program:

An ice cream social was held Friday July 8 to kick off the Summer Pilot Program of the new Bridge Academy. Staff and volunteers were on hand to welcome parents and future students to their new facility at St. Margaret Mary Parish Hall. Sundaes and milkshakes were served to celebrate the event, and aid recruitment efforts for new students.

Bridge Academy’s Director Frances Coyne-Davis was pleased to announce that as of now they are at 2/3 of their goal for summer enrollment with 19 participants! The Program commenced yesterday and I look forward to catching a few minutes of face time with one of my new co-workers to see how it turned out! Everyone here at the Parkersburg campus is anxious to welcome this new Program aboard and be a part of the efforts to keep “at-promise” youth educated and empowered to prevent teenage pregnancy.
