Give your child an education that’s as unique as they are. As the leading private school in Barrington, IL, Brightmont’s specialized educational approach is based on over 25 years of experience helping students in grades K-12 succeed academically. We recognize and support the needs of every student, including students with learning differences, students living with anxiety and/or depression, high-aptitude students, and student-athletes or performers with demanding schedules.
Brightmont’s educational model is mastery-based, empowering students to actively engage in their studies at their own pace while feeling challenged and supported throughout the learning process.
Traditional classrooms are insufficient or even impossible for many students; rigid schedules, inadequate attention from instructors, and an overwhelming environment can impede your child’s success. Brightmont’s personalized instruction helps students progress toward their goals and gain the self-confidence necessary to fuel a lifelong love of learning.
We offer a range of programs throughout the year to serve the diverse needs of families in Barrington. This includes full-time school, individual courses, tutoring, and skill-building programs. We also offer open enrollment and rolling admissions, so your child can start right away.
When you join the Brightmont family, we’ll work with you and your child to design the most effective, personalized instructional plan possible and select experienced teachers who understand your child’s academic needs and learning style.
