HISTORY
Bright Minds International Academy (BMIA) was opened in August 2008, to create a community of motivated learners, based on the VESS Model with the mission to nurture individuals with the necessary skills and habits of mind to live meaningful lives with balance and wisdom. Every learning opportunity created in BMIA is carefully crafted to engage curious minds in awing experiences that lead them to want to know more and to think deeply. We build a new world and live in different contexts, nurturing life-long curiosity and cultivating children’s innate love for learning. Our sister's preschools are located in:

in BMIA we are in constant search, study, and integration of the best and most revolutionary approaches to education to make the learning process authentic for our children
Edu1st.Preschools is driven by unifying values: we live and breathe them always inside the schools, with our families and the community; for all of us, it's important to find harmony between the different forces that impact their lives. Every child adds value to itself, others, and the world, learning how to make better decisions and look for a purpose, and contribute to a common good that positively impacts individuals and societies. In BMIA, we believe in a partnership approach to education between the family and the school to assure each child’s absolute well-being and make the parent's life easier. We care about children and their families, due to this, there is always open communication, so parents know what is going on. Every child deserves a funny environment. At BMIA, activities are focused on sparking inquiry and curiosity in children by engaging them with provocative experiences that encourage interaction, multisensory stimulation, scientific exploration, music, art, emotional intelligence, and deep critical thinking. Learning is fun and playful when children discover knowledge. The first priority in Bright Minds International Academy (BIA) is every child's happiness. Fun + Engaging + Interactive + Challenging + Real life related + Amusing + Minds On and Hands-On activities are carefully crafted by our staff. Now it's the time to give your child to experience the most wonderful years of its life, with the best quality care you can possibly give it. Let's work together to motivate your child to participate with his/her friends in activities that are engaging.
