Our Mission
We empower high school homeschoolers with the skills and knowledge they need to choose and thrive in college, careers, military service, and beyond.

Our goal is to ensure every student is prepared for a successful future while helping families feel supported throughout their educational journey.
Our Vision
We envision a world where every homeschooler has the skills, knowledge, and support to confidently pursue their future goals, whether that means thriving in college, excelling in a career, serving in the military, or beyond. By working closely with students and families, through our online platform, we can provide the guidance and innovative resources to ensure each student is fully prepared for success.
What Makes Us Different
BridgePath was designed to provide families with the answers and support they need to make the right decisions along the way. We fill in the blanks and answer the growing number of questions families have when they choose to homeschool during high school. Families decide to homeschool for a variety of reasons. The decision can be scary and often comes with considerations such as:
- Which curriculum is best? Should we choose an online school, hybrid school, or make our own curriculum?
- Should my student be participating in community service?
- How do we create transcripts?
- Are there college scholarships that require service hours?
- Does the NCAA require foreign language courses for athletes?
- What is the best way to support my homeschooler who struggles with ADHD and/or learning disabilities?
- Where do we start with the PSAT/SAT?
- Are colleges still test optional?
- How do we manage our time better?
- Can homeschool students in high school take college courses (dual enrollment?)
- How can we get tutoring for our student?
- Does my state offer a scholarship or tax credit for homeschooling?
Our goal is to take the guesswork out of homeschooling. We have the expertise and resources to ensure your student is on the right track!
Our Founder's Story
When Dr. Marla Friedman watched her son struggle through four different high schools in four years, she knew something had to change. As a mother of a student-athlete with learning disabilities and ADHD, she experienced firsthand the challenges many families face in finding the right educational path for their children. Dr. Friedman’s son is now a D2 athlete majoring in Cybersecurity with straight A’s.
"Every child deserves a chance to succeed," Dr. Friedman often says, reflecting on her family's journey. Her son's battle to balance athletics with academics, while managing learning disabilities, opened her eyes to a pressing need in education.
Drawing from her 27 years of experience as a college professor, director of a private high school, best selling author and national speaker, Dr. Friedman channeled her expertise and passion into creating BridgePath Prep, an online community for homeschooled families. As the fastest growing sector of education in the U.S., today there are over 3.7 Million homeschool students.
"We're not just preparing homeschoolers for college and careers," Dr. Friedman explains, "we're preparing them for life." Bridgepath Prep equips students for real-world skills like artificial intelligence, financial literacy, entrepreneurship and communications. The goal of BridgePath Prep is to provide resources, and support to help homeschoolers identify their goals after high school and the steps to take to reach them.
