Brightmont Academy Announces Campus Extension at Sammamish Location

Private School in Sammamish Specializing in One-to-One Instruction for 1st-12th Grade Students


Sammamish, WA – Brightmont Academy, a nationally accredited private school that offers a flexible, customized learning alternative to traditional schools, is excited to announce the extension of its campus at the Sammamish location. This expansion comes in response to the tremendous growth experienced by the academy in recent years.


With up to 14 classrooms, including 12 spaces specifically designed for instructional purposes and two additional flexible spaces, Brightmont Academy is poised to better serve its students and accommodate its growing student body. This expansion marks a significant milestone for the academy, allowing it to overcome previous space constraints and continue its mission of providing individualized education tailored to each student's unique needs. Derek Heinz, the Campus Director of the Sammamish location, states, "We have grown tremendously the last few years, to the point that I have now abandoned my office so that it can be used for classroom space. In some cases, we have conducted sessions in the kitchen. The kids and staff have been wonderful throughout the process, but we actually got to a point at which I couldn't accept new students, which was a sad reality for a while."


The newly extended campus will primarily cater to older middle school students and all high school students, with potential adjustments based on the distribution of students for the upcoming fall semester. This strategic move ensures that students and teachers alike will once again have dedicated classroom spaces for their lessons, fostering an optimal learning environment conducive to academic growth. Commenting on the impact of the expansion, Heinz adds, "It allows us to continue to offer our 1:1 model to more students. No longer are we constrained by available space, which has been the case for about 6 months now."


Brightmont Academy's commitment to personalized education remains unwavering, and the campus extension in Sammamish represents a significant step forward in fulfilling this commitment. The academy looks forward to welcoming both current and prospective students to its expanded campus, where every individual can thrive academically and personally.


Brightmont Academy is located at 4588 Klahanie Dr. SE, Suite 401 in Sammamish, and is currently accepting enrollments. Families and professionals are invited to attend an Open House event on Thursday, June 20th, 2024, between 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM.

Customized full-time programs and individual courses are offered for grades 1-12. Students can also receive individualized tutoring for all 1-12 subjects, study skills, and test prep.
