At Brillante Academy, we believe: Every child possesses inherent dignity & infinite potential.
Parents are the first educators.
Learning and excelling in two languages (English and Spanish) builds bridges, opens doors, and strengthens minds.
Truth, Goodness, and Beauty cultivate the mind, body, and spirit of every child.
About Brillante Academy Brillante Academy Public Charter School will open its doors in August 2023 with Pre-K through 1st grade and serve over 350 students from the Rio Grande Valley in the Mission area and surrounding communities in its first year.
We will grow one grade-level a year until 8th grade.
Over the next decade, we plan to expand our network across the state of Texas to serve over 7,000 students.
The Charter Management Organization (CMO) for Brillante Academy is Seton Education Partners, a Catholicly inspired organization that also manages the Seton Teaching Fellows missionary program and El Camino, an optional after-school Catholic faith formation program.
Seton Education Partners is also the CMO for our sister schools, the Brilla Schools Network, which are having a transformational impact in Bronx, NY.
Why Brillante? Brillante Academy is a two-way, dual language school that aims to empower our scholars and community through an innovative approach that combines personalized blended learning and co-teaching with a classical approach to education.
We focus on teaching the whole child, instilling a deep sense of character through our core values (courage, justice, wisdom, and self-control) while setting a high bar for academic achievement and teaching a content-rich curriculum that has stood the test of time.
All in service of preparing our scholars for excellence in high school, college and beyond.
Our scholars acquire and master English and Spanish to become bilingual and biliterate citizens who will leave a lasting positive impact on their community as problem solvers, advocates, and contributors.
Brillante’s commitment to holistic child development is paralleled with its commitment to creating a joyful community for families and staff.
