Bridger Middle School
Wasn't happy with the school or administration at ALL. My child is special needs, and even with an IEP they wouldn't help him. Would NOT recommend.

Bridger Middle School
michelle miller: I am a parent of a student who will be attending her second yr. @ Bridger and is hearing impaired @ requires hearing aids in both ears. She did not take speech in the "09" school yr. but I feel she is stuggling some with her speech I am very, very concerned that with her hearing problems & her struggling with her speech in the English Language I feel very strongly that it would be un-fair for her to have to take a forign language class!!My opion on this whole thing is I don't think our students should be forced to learn a forgin language it should be the students descision if they wanna learn another laungage or not it should not be mandatory for everyone!!
