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


National — 93% of Brightmont Academy students say Brightmont helped them achieve their academic goals, a testament to the school’s personalized one-to-one instruction. With a 25-year legacy of academic excellence, Brightmont, a nationally accredited private school specializing in one-to-one instruction, has empowered students to achieve success through individualized learning. This unique approach prepares students academically and instills the confidence and self-advocacy skills necessary to navigate the college admissions process successfully.


As students receive their college acceptance letters, Brightmont reflects on the profound impact of its one-to-one instruction. “We know we can prepare our students with very strong courses, so their transcripts look great,” said Karen Buckner, CEO of Brightmont. “They also can tell a different story about what they've learned by having such great one-on-one interactions with their teachers—how they've been able to learn, advocate for themselves, and gain a deeper understanding of their strengths.”


This year’s list of college acceptances shows the diverse opportunities available to Brightmont graduates. From state universities to prestigious private institutions, Brightmont students are earning spots at top schools across the country. The new college acceptance map highlights this success, demonstrating that Brightmont students stand out in the competitive admissions process. “If colleges take the time to truly look at their students, we're going to stand out,” Buckner continued. “I think that's a direct result of what we're seeing in this new college map we have with all these great colleges on there.”


For many students, Brightmont is more than just a school, it’s a place where they rediscover their confidence and realize that higher education is within reach. Through personalized instruction and supportive learning environments, these students have gained the skills and self-assurance needed to take the next step in their education by applying to colleges and pursuing their academic aspirations. “There’s nothing more rewarding than seeing a student build their self-esteem through academics and their Brightmont experience,” Buckner added. “The part we play in helping them grow and then having a third party validate that through a college acceptance is just super exciting.”


Brightmont Academy is located in eight states and is currently accepting enrollments.


Brightmont Academy is an accredited private school that provides one-to-one instruction. One experienced teacher works with one student throughout every learning session.
