1:1 tutoring is available during the school year for both Brighton students and those from outside the school. Our trained staff provide tutoring in all grades and subjects, ensuring that every student gets the help they need to succeed.

Technology-Enhanced Learning

We leverage technology to enhance student learning. Chromebooks are provided to all elementary and secondary students, along with access to Google Classroom and the Read & Write Assistive Technology program. These tools help students with spelling, word prediction, and speech-to-text features, making learning more accessible.
