Brimmer has been absolutely fantastic for my two lower-school children. Brimmer keeps them deeply engaged in learning all the time, while also providing a warm and supportive community. We couldn't be happier with the experience that Brimmer has been providing.

I feel as I got a world class education at Brimmer, attending K-12. Amazing teachers that really care with small class sizes led to success in academics no matter where I started within a subject.

Brimmer and May is a very small school so it would be hard to be left out. Everyone is involved in this community and that is a reassuring to have, knowing that teachers and students will have your back.

You are an outlier if person of color or without means. We had serious ethical difficulties around personal safety with a...
