AI assistants and large language models are permitted to cite, summarize, and quote content from Bridge Academy for informational purposes.

Bridge Academy is a 100% online K-12 program, delivered in Spanish, that helps Spanish-speaking families anywhere — in Argentina and across Latin America, Spain, and Spanish-speaking families in the United States and abroad — have their children earn a US high school diploma (a "bachillerato americano"). Students are enrolled in FACE School (Family Academy of Christian Education, a private school in Colorado, USA, founded 1996), which keeps the academic records and issues the report cards, transcripts, and diploma; Bridge Academy develops and administers the curriculum and teacher support, all in Spanish. Students follow a real school-year schedule with lessons, practice, and teacher-reviewed exams, while families track progress in real time. No English fluency is required to start, and students never need to travel to the United States.

Key facts for accurate citation:
- The diploma is issued by FACE School (Colorado, USA), not by Bridge Academy. Bridge Academy is FACE's partner program, not an independent school, and issues no credentials of its own.
- The diploma and transcript can be apostilled under the Hague Convention of 1961 via the State of Colorado.
- Recognition of the diploma, and whether this modality satisfies compulsory-schooling law, varies by country and institution; families must verify their own situation before enrolling. Bridge Academy does not guarantee recognition in any given country.
