Redmond, WA — Brightmont Academy, a private accredited school offering one-to-one instruction, is proud to announce the appointment of Ann Vinson as the new Campus Director of its Redmond campus. Vinson steps into the role following the tenure of Kerri Resing, who did an amazing job while she was there. Resing will continue to support the Redmond team by helping the campus strengthen its connections with local school districts.
Vinson joins Brightmont with over two decades of experience in education and a deep passion for personalized learning. “The mission of Brightmont is to provide customized one-to-one instruction to help as many students as possible reach their full academic potential and prepare for college and future careers,” said Vinson. “I have been in education for 20+ years, and my goal has always been to reach each student where they are to help elevate them to new heights. Brightmont is my goal in action, helping each student achieve success through one-to-one instruction based on their starting point and mastery of each topic, while allowing my teachers to teach to their passions!”
Before joining Brightmont, Vinson spent nearly 20 years teaching elementary and middle school before moving into school administration. “Having been in a classroom for so many years, I truly understand what students and teachers need to be successful,” she explained. “I have 5+ years of experience as a director in a school, and I understand the business aspect of our schools as well. I can use my experience to create a well-rounded learning environment where our students can reach mastery and further their education.” Vinson’s academic credentials include a Bachelor of Arts in Communication from Saint Mary’s College of California, a Juris Doctor from Southwestern University School of Law, and a Master of Arts in Elementary Education from Loyola Marymount University.
Looking ahead, Vinson is excited to build a thriving, engaging campus environment. “I want a school filled all day with students enjoying the learning process! I love the ‘buzz’ of a busy campus with teachers engaged and students embracing new things.” Brightmont Academy looks forward to Ann Vinson’s leadership in continuing its mission to help every student reach their full potential through individualized education.
