Brightmont Academy Miami Empowers Students Through Step Up Funds

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


Miami, FL — Brightmont Academy is furthering its mission to strengthen students’ academic foundations by offering personalized tutoring and skill-building programs supported by Florida’s Step Up scholarship programs. These scholarships provide funding for K-12 families, covering options such as private school tuition, tutoring, and educational enrichment. According to the organization, over 1 million scholarships have been funded, and more than 98.9% of donated funds go directly to scholarships.


Brightmont continues to see increasing interest as families recognize the impact of customized, one-to-one instruction. “Word of mouth has been powerful,” said Monica Torres, Campus Director at Brightmont Miami. “Parents, therapists, and professionals are not only learning about Brightmont Academy but also seeing firsthand the impact on children. The benefits of one-to-one learning speak for themselves, and families want that level of support.”


Through Step Up scholarships, eligible students and families can apply scholarship funds toward tuition, tutoring, and skill-building programs at Brightmont. “Students with Step Up scholarships—whether through Unique Abilities (UA) or the Personalized Education Program (PEP)—can use those funds to support their academic growth,” said Torres. “Families may apply the funds toward tuition, tutoring, and skill-building programs.”


Brightmont’s programs are designed to help students catch up, build stronger academic skills, or advance beyond their current level—all through individualized instruction. “Skill building helps students both catch up and move ahead,” Torres explained. “Many are behind grade level, preparing for the SAT, aiming to boost their grades, or simply want stronger academic skills. One-to-one instruction ensures each program is personalized to meet students where they are and help them reach the next level.”


Brightmont has observed strong results: only 20 hours of one-to-one instruction can help a student improve by approximately half a grade level in reading, writing, or math. With scheduling available after school, on teacher-planning days, during spring break, and through the summer, the school ensures flexibility for busy families.


Brightmont Academy is located at 6101 SW 76th Street in Miami and is currently accepting enrollments. Families and professionals are invited to attend an Open House event on Thursday, December 18th, 2025, between 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM.


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 21 campuses in Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota, North Carolina, and Washington.
