Bright Star Schools

Since 2003, Bright Star Schools has operated some of the strongest tuition-free public schools in Los Angeles. Our schools primarily serve children in the mid-city communities of West Adams and Korea town, and in the Panorama City neighborhood of the San Fernando Valley, though students from all across the Los Angeles Unified School District are eligible to attend. Bright Star's students participate in a program that features rigorous academics and rich life experiences. Our students thrive academically and socially because our core operating principles, which include high expectations, attention to detail, clearly defined standards of accountability, and continuous improvement, provide a framework for success. At Bright Star Schools students achieve academic excellence, accept responsibility for their futures, and embrace school as family. We offer students the opportunity to develop their unique talents and ambitions in a supportive, collaborative environment, so they are prepared for college and career, and to lead purposeful, fulfilling lives.
