Bricolage Academy opened its doors in Fall 2013 to 75 kindergarten students. Bricolage’s mission is to advance educational equity by preparing students from diverse backgrounds to be innovators who change the world. Today, Bricolage is a thriving K-3 elementary school in great demand: there are five applications for each available kindergarten seat. We currently serve 340 students in kindergarten through second grade. By the 2025-2026 school year, Bricolage will serve students in three schools (elementary, middle, and high) serving grades K-12. Bricolage’s student population is diverse in every way: by race, ethnicity, gender, socio-economic status, geography, and life circumstance. Our current student body hails from 16 of the city’s 18 zip codes. By the numbers: 49% are minorities, 51% are white; 43% are female, and 57% are male. Some of our students are the product of generational poverty, while others are the product of generational affluence.
