Brightmont Academy

Brightmont Academy has outgrown its campus at 14 Mile Road and Woodward Avenue and has relocated to 746 E. Maple Road, Birmingham. The move reflects the school’s continued growth, with the Birmingham campus currently serving 75 students. The Academy, which offers one-to-one instruction, was founded in 1999. Since then, the organization has grown to offer instruction in 20 campuses in Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota, and Washington. “We are a private one-to-one school and what that means is that every student has one teacher. We have mini classrooms, with one teacher and one student in each classroom,” said Birmingham Campus Director Annette Losser. “We can graduate kids all the way from grade one through high school. We send kids to college every year. We also provide tutoring services as well as SAT prep after school.” Another unique feature of Brightmont Academy is that it offers flexibility in scheduling around the student’s needs. “Some students start in the morning, some start in the afternoon, some kids come three days a week and some come five days a week. Everybody is different based on what they need,” said Losser. To date, Brightmont Academy has helped more than 4,000 students become more confident and successful learners.
