Dear Bridges Community,
I am writing to express my gratitude for the opportunity to serve as the Assistant Principal at Bridges Elementary School and to be part of this remarkable community. It is a true honor to contribute to the educational journey of our students.
At Bridges, we hold a firm belief in equipping every student with the skills necessary to thrive in the dynamic and ever-changing 21st century workplace. Through our integrated campus-wide Project Based Learning (PBL) approach with a strong emphasis on STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and math), we strive to provide an exceptional educational experience. I am incredibly fortunate to be part of the Bridges family, where we continuously foster the school's culture and traditions.
My passion for education stems from a desire to improve the lives of children and enhance the education process. I firmly believe that a proper education is a crucial foundation for a student's future success. It is our responsibility as educators to create an intellectually challenging, motivating, safe, inspiring, and supportive environment for all students, regardless of their individual needs. As a supportive leader, I am committed to an open communication philosophy, always striving to prioritize what is best for our students and enhance their learning experiences.
On a personal note, I consider myself fortunate to be married to my wife, Patty, who is also an educator. We take pride in our daughter, who is currently attending the University of Arizona. I have completed my Master's degree in Educational Leadership from Northern Arizona University. When I am not at school, I cherish moments spent with my family and friends.
I firmly believe that building strong relationships is at the core of educational success. I am genuinely excited about deepening my connections with our students and the Bridges Community. If you have any questions, concerns, achievements to celebrate, or if you would like to schedule an appointment, please do not hesitate to reach out to me at 480-279-8700 or via email at
Todd.Berg@husd.org. I eagerly anticipate another productive school year, filled with opportunities for growth and learning.
Respectfully,
Todd Berg
Assistant Principal
