Exploring Twice-Exceptionality

What does it mean to be 2e?

The term “twice-exceptional” (or “2e”) often is used to describe students with high ability and potential who simultaneously experience learning, executive functioning, production, and/or social challenges.

They are challenged in most schools by a misalignment between their learner profile and the school's curriculum and instructional approach.
Above are just a few basic examples of twice-exceptional students.

Bridges Academy and the 2e Center for Research and Professional Development at Bridges are leaders in twice-exceptional education. We are proponents of a strength- and talent-based personalized-learning curriculum. The school and 2e Center are located in Studio City, CA.
