Brightmont Academy, a private school specializing in one-to-one instruction, is moving to a new location that will meet the needs of more students. Beginning its 16th year serving the Seattle metro area, the campus includes additional individual learning rooms, a science lab, a new homework studio and a full kitchen.

Brightmont Academy specializes in one-to-one instruction where one experienced teacher works with one student throughout every learning session.

“We are excited to expand our campus and to be able to offer an enhanced learning environment to our students in the Redmond Town Center,” said Campus Director Sheila Harrison. “With more space, we will have increased availability for students who can benefit from one-to-one instruction.”

The new design of the Redmond Town Center campus includes 17 individual learning rooms to effectively facilitate one-to-one instruction and a student gathering area with a full kitchen and lunch room that will provide students with a comfortable space and encourage socializing during break times. A science lab will enable students to complete more complex labs with safety in mind, and a new, quiet homework studio provides an area for independent work.

“One-to-one instruction at Brightmont Academy fully individualizes the learning process to effectively address a wide range of learning challenges,” said founder Ruth Wilson. “This is a proven model that addresses a range of student needs—those with learning difficulties, those who need support to graduate and for those students wanting to accelerate their studies.”

Brightmont Academy is a fully accredited private school that uses a one-to-one instructional approach to customize the learning program for each individual student and family. Students in grades 6 through 12 may enroll at any time during the year or for summer school, and earn a diploma issued by Brightmont Academy. Brightmont also offers individual courses, enabling students to transfer credit toward a diploma to another high school, and tutoring for students in grades 3 through 12.

The new campus is located at 7345 164th Ave. N.E., Suite I135.
