This school is perfect for anyone who is in the industry, sports or transitioning from home schooling. The classes are small and the teachers care about the students. The tuition is extremely reasonable for a private school. The school recently got rid of the uniform policy. They listen to the students and make change. You want a school that continues to grow.

As a parent, this school exceeds my expectations regarding being a child friendly and supportive environment. In addition to the curriculum core classes, they offer a myriad of after school clubs and activities. As a professional, this school is second to none in terms of academic rigor, including Honors and AP classes. The teachers extend beyond the textbooks by including projects throughout the year and allowing students a collaborative learning experience. Last year the Science Fair was enjoyed school wide, with students taking pride in their work. The staff and director are very child centered and accommodate each student to fulfill his/her full potential.

We are incredibly lucky to be in this school. This is every parent and child dream. The teachers are absolutely amazing, the staff is friendly, the classes are small, and the kids are kind, always ready to help and super cool. After being neglected and completely left behind at the public school, my son was welcomed, accepted and taken care of academically, socially and emotionally. This is his third year and he thrives. The school has a program for kids with special needs, tutoring and extra curriculum after school program, lots of field trips and holiday parties. Tuition is reasonable, and the campus is safe. This is a small family-like place focusing on each kid’s academic excellence and social acceptance, and for us it is an absolute blessing. Thank you to Ms. Angie and all the teachers and staff.

Horrible experience! Security is very low in the school, right next to an alley with doors open for anyone to go in to the school. Teachers/staff seen yelling at the kids and calling them names. Parents are not welcome or punished if concerned over their child. No communication and you have to call, email or show up to get any help. Teachers are so burnt out and seem uninterested in doing actual work. I wish I never sent my child here, she has a functional disability and was told she'd be supported but ultimately they didn't want to help.

Brighton Hall had changed my sons life. Ms. Angie and her staff help each student cultivate their unique strengths and talents.In a time when it is harder and harder not to have our children heavily influenced by a public school or state agenda that doesn't support parents, wants to keep them out of school board meetings and is more interested in masking and vaccinating students, the staff at Brighton Hall teaches freedom of speech while respecting the differences among fellow students, mindfulness and interpersonal skills. Brighton Hall strives to listen to and support both their student and parents while ensuring collaboration and respect among students. Brighton Hall holds tight to the family and community values of many of the schools that so many of us were blessed to experience growing up in the 70s, 80s and 90s.Wether your child wants to be a doctor or an actor, or is shy or an extrovert, Brighton Hall truly welcomes everyone and will tailor an education to fit both the parents and students needs.

What a hidden gem this school is! Most people don't know it, but it's not just a school for "performing kids". It is open to any one who wants their child to have a solid education, with amazing teachers, with small class sizes on a campus that feels more like a family, than a school! Also, even though core classes end at 1pm, they offer an abundance of fun electives or "clubs" such as, Film Production, Yoga, Art, Cooking, Coding, Karaoke, Gaming, Creative Writing, just to name a few!Even though it is a private school, it is not associated with any religious affiliation, although they do share some of their campus with the Luthern Church. AND...Tuition is A THIRD of the cost of any other private prep school in the area! Our son is thriving here like never before! We feel like we've been let in on the best kept secret in Burbank!

This school is a hidden gem! Best decision we ever made for our child. Strong academics, caring teachers, and a small, family atmosphere. Our family feels so blessed to be a part of it!

Brighton Hall has made a world of difference in the way my daughter see's school. In our short time at Brighton Hall, my daughter has thrived. The once extremely shy little girl is coming out of her shell and academically thriving. The teachers, staff and director are all compassionate, they ensure each child meets their own individual goals while still meeting national standards. We love this school.

Brighton Hall is a very special place. Amazing education combined with a super supportive environment where the students and the teachers both seem to love being there everyday. Our family is so grateful!

Our family LOVES everything about Brighton Hall and they truly care about their students and families! The classes are super small, the academics are challenging, and the teachers are passionate and want to develop the overall student. We chose Brighton Hall because it’s a college-prep “hybrid” school which offers a seamless combo of both on-campus and online learning. They cater to children who travel with elite sports, dance, or may spend weeks at a time on-set. Our daughter transferred into Brighton Hall mid-semester while in high school. The transition was easy! She didn’t miss a beat and her teachers got to know her in a short period of time. She’s now beginning her 3rd year and we feel so blessed to have found such a special place. Brighton Hall is one-of-a-kind and has an amazing leadership team, staff, and teachers! I am confident that our daughter will grow into everything she was meant to be at this school.

This has been a positive High School experience for my daughter. Brighton Hall has taken a person who was only just doing enough to get by and made a student out of her. She is now looking forward to attending College.

Very good. Brighton Hall just made a video called a look inside Brighton Hall, see it at tinyurl.com/brightonhall This video explains why this small school is so effective for working kids in the entertainment industry. They have been in business for over 26 years.

Although a small school, Brighton Hall offers courses and extracurriculars that are comparable to the larger, more prominent schools in the area. The teachers are very knowledgable and truly care about all the students' academic success. I have throughly enjoyed my time here at Brighton Hall and feel more than prepared for college.

Brighton Hall is a hidden gem. It has a dedicated and supportive teaching and administrative staff. It's curriculum is rigorous and more than prepares the students to take the step from high school to college. For students needing more time outside of school for extra curricular activities, Brighton Hall is a good choice. It is a nice balance of having the shortened school day without comprising the quality of education. - A Parent

My son entered Brighton Hall as a sixth grader. He immediately connected with a delightful group of peers who have become wonderful friends and partners in learning. My son and I have felt tremendous support from the school for his pursuit of acting though I would recommend Brighton Hall for the learning environment alone. For students who like to be creatively involved in their learning and actively engaged with their teachers Brighton Hall provides an important alternative to larger, public schools that are unable to provide such a learning experience. My son has found the teachers to be accessible and supportive and he feels valued and respected. While many students can find middle school a challenging period my son is thriving academically and socially. The administrative staff is wonderfully receptive and enthusiastic and round out the Brighton Hall experience by providing the underpinnings of guidance, support, and consistency necessary to the efficient and proper running of the school. My son and I are very grateful that he has such a school as Brighton Hall.

My two children love going to school each day because they respect and admire their teachers, who are compassionate and dedicated to student learning. The learning is as much if not more about the process than it is about the results. Consequently, the teachers are setting the students up to be successful learners at any level. Another added plus is that the day is focused on their core subjects and they are not exhausted at the end of the day, as they would be in a typical 8:00-3:00 school day. They leave early enough to complete homework and attend music or dance lessons or sports practice and still be home in time for dinner and a healthy bed time. The students have such interesting backgrounds and are welcoming to all students. They develop friendships beyond grade levels and the older students are like buddies to the elementary students. There is a true sense of community amongst students, parents and staff.
