My review was deleted from Google. That should tell you all you need to know about the character of the Brights Scholars administration. Bright Scholars may be a good fit for families whose children easily adapt to structured classroom expectations. However, for children who need additional support adjusting to a school environment, the experience can be very concerning. Parents should be aware that if a child struggles with sitting still, following directions immediately, or navigating a classroom setting for the first time, they may find that the school lacks the resources and training necessary to effectively support those needs. Rather than working collaboratively to help children develop these skills, families may find themselves being called to pick up their child repeatedly. What was most concerning was hearing from administration that many teachers only possess high school diplomas. This raises important questions about the level of training being provided to staff, particularly in the area of behavior management and supporting young learners with diverse developmental needs. Dr. Mia Young, given your educational background and stated expertise in Educational Leadership, professional development, and staff training, I would hope to see stronger implementation of those principles within your organization. Effective behavior management, de-escalation strategies, and developmentally appropriate interventions should be fundamental components of staff training in an early childhood setting. Unfortunately, the challenges in this area were evident during the graduation ceremony on May 30, 2026. Watching staff respond to a scholar who clearly needed additional patience, guidance, and support was disheartening. Rather than demonstrating compassion and effective behavioral strategies, the situation highlighted what appeared to be significant gaps in training and preparedness. Every child deserves an educational environment where they are supported as they learn, grow, and develop the skills necessary to succeed. Schools should not only celebrate children who naturally fit into a structured environment, but also be equipped to help those who need extra encouragement, understanding, and care along the way. read more

My family have had a Great Experience with Bright Scholars Academy. My grand-daughter started at 2yrs old now, she is 4. This is her 3rd year and 3rd teacher, she loves each year and each teacher. Each year has been better than the year before. The staff and teachers are Absolutely Amazing! Ms Hyre is her teacher this year in Pre-K. It is going to be a Sweet Sorrow when she leaves before going to Kg at OCPS. Ms. Hyre has been a God Send! I have seen my granddaughter Blossom in Ms. Hyre's Class. I use to think, "They learn it all in Kindergarten", but now, I can truly say they learn it all in Pre-K. Ms Hyre has prepared her for Kg., First Grade, & Life Beyond. She has truly learned so much in Ms Hyre's Class, I am Amazed, Each Day when she comes home. We will never forget Ms. Hyre and Pre-K at Bright Scholars. read more

We love Bright Scholars! Our daughters are safe and loved; Mrs. Pina, Mrs. Luna, Ms. Contreras and Ms. Rodriguez have been the sweetest and my girls rave about how much they love their teachers. Mrs. T is so helpful and always there to greet you with a smile. Their communication is excellent and I know my children are safe when they have to be away from me. It's an extremely caring and warm environment. We are moving and so sad to be leaving this school but so thankful for the time spent here - they truly care and love the littles 10/10 recommend read more

I want to preface this review by saying this is solely based on the registration/enrollment process. I toured the school last month and completed the necessary enrollment paperwork through email since I do not currently live nearby. For the last couple of weeks, I've tried to email and call the site director to get an update. There has been no response since I've sent the forms. I'm looking for a school that is more communicative with parents, especially early on. There are a lot of families moving to this area in the next couple of months. I hope this review helps parents avoid the stress of a school that does not prioritize responding to a parent's emails and calls. read more

Thank you to the teachers and administrators of this school for the attentiveness and genuine care you've shown our family. While the onboarding was a bit rocky, you guided through the rough patch with ease. We appreciate the communication, high energy levels, and joy your entire team brings each day. read more

We love Bright Scholars! Every morning our 22 month old tells us "bye bye" as she runs to the door with a big smile on her face ready to head to school. Being excited about school speaks volumes when most children around this age are still very clingy to their parents. Ms. Garate and Ms. Corrales in the Intelligent 1B class are so sweet and nurturing towards all of the children, and they make the classroom a safe and fun place. Since day one, we have been impressed by all of the staff remembering the children on a first name basis and greeting us all with a smile every day. "Chef" (what all of the kids lovingly call him) knows the children by name and is so kind to all of them. Ms. Baker has been our go to for any important information, and she is a wonderful asset to Bright Scholars. Mrs. Cohen and Mrs. Ace are always at the front desk greeting everyone with a smile as well. You know walking into this school that your children will be given a wonderful educational foundation with Christian values, which in my book is of the utmost importance when choosing a school/daycare for your children. read more

I absolutely love this school. Mrs. Burgos has been great with my daughter and she is learning so much!

I cannot stand any company that wants to censor! I saw their ad for a private kindergarten and asked where can I get more information because I have a child who, will be in kindergarten this year. I was told to email so they may send me a zoom link to their next conference. As a working family I asked if there was any info posted online for myself and my husband to view. I was told that I am free to call the front desk to discuss the program. This was all done via comment on their post for private kindergarten this year yet, because I said thanks but thanks as my husband and i have yet to not work 40+ since the start of the year and, have zero time to sit in a zoom conference let alone call anyone - it was deleted. Censoring comments makes the school seem desperate and, truly puts a bad taste in my families mouth. Our kids have always attended private school and, I have never encountered a school that makes you pull teeth to obtain any information. Because of this and the poor customer service skills my family will never attend this school. You want families to attend your "new " program ?!? Make it easy for them to access the necessary basic information to make an educated decision! read more
