The Bridge Academy Welcomes New Board Member

“I can still remember the parents and future teachers of Bridge sitting around our kitchen tale discussing how to start a new school,” explained David Couture, an alumnus of The Bridge Academy. “I was really ex cited to be one of the first nine students to start at Bridge in the fall of 2003. My mother was very proud of the accomplishments of this small dedicated group of teachers and parents.”

Thirteen years later, not only did David graduated from high school and college, but he recently joined the Board of Trustees for The Bridge Academy. “I feel like I have come full circle from seeing the seeds planted to form a new school to actually being involved in the overall governance of the school,” he said.

David graduated Magna Cum Laude and as a honors student from Johnson & Wales University. After college, Couture began working at Solebury Capital, LLC where he is currently Administration and IT Director. “We are delighted to have David join our Board of Trustees. It is a testament to the mission of our school that our students are capable of reaching any goal they put their mind to. Having an alumnus on the Board extends a different perspective to the governance of the school and ultimately it’s future success,” explained Board President, Mark Reilly.
