Educational Network Parents and Students Guide Educational Networks Quick Parent & Student Guide School Website link: https://www.bridgepreposceola.com/ Bulldog Parents and Families, BridgePrep Academy staff is working diligently in preparing for the possibility that school officials could order school closures at any time, we have a plan that ensures that students will continue learning from home if the need arises. Our plan is for students to communicate with teachers online and through the educational portal, Educational Networks, in the event, that the school is ordered to be closed. Currently students, teachers, and families are all doing well and are healthy. We are closely monitoring the COVID-19, commonly known as coronavirus, and paying attention to information from the Florida Department of Health and the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC). BridgePrep has been taking the following measures: • Extra cleaning at high-frequency contact areas • Adequately stocking hygiene supplies • Counselors available to students with anxiety about coronavirus This is an ever-changing situation. We will work closely together to provide you with updates on the information as it comes available to us. We will formulate a plan of action that will ensure safety, on-going education/teaching to all students in our schools or remotely. Please be sure to complete the survey sent from the school. This survey will inform us of the technology our students have access to use. Education is key! And education cannot stop in the case of extended time out of school. Students will still receive educational opportunities following the protocol from the Florida Department of Health and Florida Department of Education by providing a technology remote access to learning via our school website and the technology programs students have been using daily. Please check our school website daily for any new information and assignments. As always, BridgePrep Academy is here to serve you and your families. Attached more instructions on how to create a student account.

New Visitor Management Procedures BridgePrep Academy of Osceola is pleased to announce that we will begin using the Raptor Visitor Management System in all of our schools to strengthen our program of campus safety for students and faculty. Part of keeping students and faculty safe is knowing who is in our buildings at all times, and the Raptor system will allow us to achieve this goal. The Raptor system will better allow us to screen visitors, contractors, and volunteers in our schools and provide us with a safer environment for our students and staff.
