What is Yellow Bridge School?
At Yellow Bridge School, we don’t just educate — we transform. We believe that learning doesn’t happen only in a classroom, but through every experience, interaction, and challenge our students face. That’s why we embrace a living and experiential approach to education, where knowledge is built through exploration, creativity, and real-world connection.
Our Values
– Respect: We promote respect for oneself, others, and the natural environment. At Yellow Bridge School, this means fostering self-awareness, empathy, collaboration, and a deep appreciation for the world around us. Respect is the foundation for a safe, inclusive, and compassionate learning community.
– Commitment: We are committed to learning, to our community, and to continuous improvement. At Yellow Bridge School, this commitment is shared by students, educators, and parents alike. It means showing perseverance, taking initiative, and actively participating in both personal and collective growth. Together, we strive for excellence and work hand in hand to build a thriving educational environment that benefits all.
– Creativity: We embrace imagination and innovation as essential tools for problem-solving and personal expression in a changing world. At Yellow Bridge School, we encourage students, educators, and families to think outside the box, explore new ideas, and develop creative solutions to real-life challenges. Creativity is at the heart of how we learn, teach, and grow together.
Why We Need Your Help
In rural communities like Agua Zarcas , access to quality education is limited — not by lack of potential, but by lack of opportunity. Many families cannot afford private schooling, and public schools are often under-resourced.
At Yellow Bridge School, we believe that every child deserves the chance to dream, grow, and succeed — regardless of their background or financial situation. Education should be a right, not a privilege, and you can help make that a reality.
Our Goal
We aim to raise $80,000 USD to help bringing Yellow Bridge School to life. Your donation will help us complete the school’s construction and establish a self-sustaining scholarship fund. The school will pay annual interest to this fund, which will permanently finance scholarships for outstanding students from low-income families.
Why Support Us?
• Immediate impact: Your contribution directly funds classrooms, libraries, and learning spaces.
• Long-term sustainability: Scholarships will be financed with interest generated by the fund you help build.
• Transparent management: We will provide annual reports and student success stories.
