There are big schools. There are small schools. Brimmer balances the best attributes of both to challenge, nurture, and empower our students.

Brimmer and May is an all gender private school that fosters active learners, compassionate leaders, and ethical global citizens from pre-kindergarten to high school. The ideal size of our school allows for personalized instruction in a student-centered, project-based learning environment.

Brimmer is big on academic resources and offerings for students: From core subjects to creative arts to social-emotional skill building. Yet our smaller scale is perfect for fostering a sense of community and connection.

Upper Elementary

Grades 2 - 5

Fostering independence and developing leadership skills while also learning to be effective collaborators are truly the underpinnings of our Upper Elementary academic and social programs. Exploration of STEAM disciplines, creative design, and real-world problem-solving are part of every elementary school student’s learning opportunities both in the classroom and through extracurricular activities.

Middle School

Grades 6 - 8

Brimmer’s Middle School program focuses on building academic skills and creating a positive environment in which students can take on greater independence and initiative. Throughout Middle School our students develop research skills, practice public speaking, and examine the world and its cultures, societies, and issues.

Upper School

Grades 9 - 12

Our college-preparatory program presents a challenging and engaging curriculum that balances specific course requirements with a wide range of electives, extracurriculars, and international travel experiences. Our mission is to develop lifelong learners, ethical citizens, and contributors to a global society. Not surprisingly, our high school students have a smooth transition to college.

“One of Brimmer’s many strengths lies in the quality of its teachers and the extent to which it individualizes its approach with students.”
