Brightmont Academy Offers Credit Acceleration for Students to Get Ahead

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


Plymouth, MN – According to research, students may find themselves bored anywhere from one-third to half of their time in school. This may be due to students finding their schoolwork and classes to be too easy for them. For those seeking a more challenging and accelerated academic path, Brightmont Academy offers the opportunity for credit acceleration. This program provides students with even greater opportunities to accelerate their academic journey and achieve their goals faster than ever before.


Brightmont Academy is a nationally accredited private school that offers a flexible, customized learning alternative to traditional schools. Credit acceleration remains a cornerstone of Brightmont Academy's commitment to personalized education, allowing students to take classes ahead of their typical high school schedule. Jennifer Sorenson, Campus Director of the Plymouth location emphasizes, “Students can complete these classes during the prior school year or summer from when they would normally take those classes. This can benefit students who would like to move more quickly through a series of classes. For example, many students will take both semesters of Geometry over the summer, so they have the opportunity to take Calculus or AP Calculus their senior year. In addition, some students who struggle with a particular subject like to participate in credit acceleration. This allows a student to take a tough class the summer prior and not have that class on their schedule the following school year.”


Brightmont Academy's Credit Acceleration Program remains committed to offering students a tailored educational experience, providing them with the support and resources they need to excel academically. With personalized attention from experienced educators, students can maximize their learning potential and achieve their academic aspirations with confidence. Sorenson affirms, “Credit acceleration helps students meet their courseload goals. It can be a strategic way to manage more difficult classes, easing the stress of the school year."


Parents should connect with a Brightmont Campus Director to determine if their student may be a good fit for credit acceleration. Most public and private schools create their schedules about a month before the traditional school year starts, so it's important to have these discussions in early Spring.


Brightmont Academy is located at 2855 Glacier Lane N., Suite 200 in Plymouth, 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. 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. Brightmont Academy has served thousands of students since 1999 and has 18 campuses in Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota, and Washington.
