Mosaic Bridges Program
The Bridge Between Elementary and Adolescent
Our Mosaic Bridges Program offers students the space, guidance, and challenges they need to grow with confidence during this important stage of moving from childhood to adolescence.
What is the Mosaic Bridges Program?
We built the Mosaic Bridges Program for children who are wrapping up their time in a more traditional elementary environment but are still firmly in the joyously curious and intellectually driven second plane of development.
The Mosaic Bridges Program meets the developmental needs of children on the cusp of adolescence. These children would typically be in the fifth or sixth grade at a traditional school.
Here, students explore new freedoms, take on greater responsibility, and begin to shape their community with their peers — all while being supported by experienced guides who walk alongside them.
What Learning Looks Like In The Transitions Program
In Mosaic Bridges, education is alive and designed to prepare your child for life. Your student will spend time:
Preparing and sharing meals together in the kitchen
Spending time outdoors, building and exploring in nature
Leading projects and research fueled by curiosity
Practicing leadership through community agreements
Developing executive function skills like time management, planning, and self-direction
Why It Matters
The Mosaic Bridges Program is more than a bridge — it’s a foundation. Students develop the skills, habits, and mindset that will empower them to thrive in The Mosaic Adolescent Program and beyond.
By the end of this stage, they are not only stronger academically, but also more confident, responsible, and connected to their community.
Preparing For What’s Ahead
Adolescence is full of growth and change. The Mosaic Bridges Program ensures students enter that chapter ready to meet challenges with independence, resilience, and curiosity.
This is the space where children begin becoming young adults — supported, challenged, and encouraged every step of the way.
The child gives us a beautiful lesson – that in order to form and maintain our intelligence, we must use our hands.
-Maria Montessori
The first signs of puberty mark a significant milestone: the transition into adolescence and a new plane of development. With a renewed focus on identity and community, your child's natural curiosity now drives a deeper search for purpose.
This is the moment they are ready to move on to The Mosaic Adolescent Community (TMAC), a program uniquely prepared to support their growth as they move from childhood to young adulthood.
