A One-to-One Private School for Learning Differences
Brightmont Academy is a fully accredited private school for children with learning differences, serving grades 1 through 12. Our unique one-student-to-one-teacher classrooms and flexible schedules help students build the confidence to advocate for their own learning, skyrocketing their academic success.
How Our School Empowers Students with Learning Differences
Every child learns differently. According to The Healthcare Review at Cornell University, approximately 20% students in the U.S. have a Specific Learning Disability (SLD), but only 8.25% of these students receive the specialized instruction or accommodations that would empower them to succeed.
At
Brightmont, our primary focus is helping each student reach their full potential. Whether your child has dyslexia, dyscalculia, dyspraxia,
ADHD, or another learning difference, our private school empowers students by offering:
- Customized instruction and individual attention to address each student's unique circumstances
- Flexible learning styles, including repetition of concepts, segmenting materials, and breaks as needed
- Inclusive technology accommodations, such as speech-to-text or text-to-speech capabilities, when necessary
- Diverse curriculum pathways to accommodate strengths, with opportunities for modified, core, honors, and AP classes
- A judgment-free learning environment where students can just be themselves and not worry about what others think
Frequently Asked Questions
How can I support my student with learning differences?
Brightmont recommends offering students with learning differences a sensory-friendly study space with minimal distractions. In particular, schools focused on one-student-to-one-teacher classroom ratios can provide individual attention while giving students the space to focus. Parents should also look for a school serving students with learning differences that uses multiple learning approaches, rather than forcing one-size-fits-all assignments.
What are the benefits of enrolling in private schools for learning differences?
Most public schools aren’t equipped to deliver a stellar learning experience for students with differences, often leading your student to disengage from their education. Private schools that specialize in learning differences, like Brightmont Academy, address these challenges through smaller, sensory-friendly classrooms that reduce distractions and empower students to learn at their own pace. Personalized attention and a customized curriculum give your child the support they need to reach their full potential.
