A full year of Bridges, part 1

In order to get you closer to the inner workings of a year in the life of the Bridges program, we're going to start at the beginning. Last week the annual educator breakfast was held at Furman University, where guidance counselors and principles from the School District of Greenville County meet to hear from Mrs. Swartz about Bridges. In addition, they were given the nomination forms for the Lambda class! Each year around 80 students are given the chance to apply for Bridges. They are selected by members of the community, guidance counselors and teachers, and students currently enrolled in the program. In the end, only 23-25 will be selected, but right now it's wide open! More on the application and interview process soon.
