Congratulations to the Bridge Boston Charter School Class of 2025!

Bridge Boston Charter School is proud to announce the graduation of our 8th grade class! These graduates join a growing legacy of incredible Alumni. As they head off to their chosen high schools, we know many will be greeted with the friendly faces of their Alma Mater. Bridge Boston prides itself on our rigorous curriculum, and knows our graduates are well-equipped to take on the world beyond 435 Warren Street.

On Saturday, June 14th, we celebrated the incredible achievements of the Class of 2025 at their commencement ceremony. Teachers and Administrators spoke to the academic feats of the class, and BBCS Alumni Jakhary Cox- Miles spoke about the value of a Bridge Boston Education. Last year, Jakhary won Codman Square Neighborhood Council’s Hidden Heroes and Sheroes Award and Youth Scholarship! Graduation is not just a milestone for students—it's a celebration for our entire school community.

Bridge Boston Charter School extends our deep appreciation to the parents, families, and educators who support our scholars every day. In their speeches, 8th graders gave individual shout-outs to about one-quarter of the Bridge Boston staff, all the way from memories from Mr. Di Sorbo’s kindergarten class, to letters of recommendation from Ms Monteiro, the art teacher.

We know that their time at Bridge wasn’t always easy. Through a rigorous course load, extracurricular activities, and of course, COVID-19, these students faced many challenges. The class of 2025 has shown incredible joy, achievement, generosity, unity, acceptance, and resilience throughout their middle school years. From academic milestones to sports to drama, every student has left a meaningful mark on our school.

As one graduate said in his speech, “Bridge’s Jaguar values are felt throughout the school, because the students, teachers and faculty all show a value being used one way or another. Bridge nurtures each student as a whole, and prepares us not only to succeed, but lead.” Congratulations to the Class of 2025!
