Brighton Hall is an independent, coeducational K-12 day school located in the Magnolia Park neighborhood of Burbank, California, United States.
Founded in 1961 as the San Fernando Valley Professional School, the school has an enrollment of approximately 60 students from kindergarten through high school, and offers a flexible academic program designed to support child performers, young professionals, and students with individualized learning needs, on both a full and part-time basis.

History
Founded in 1961 as a school for child actors, the school has provided a secular, academic-focused education to many notable performers. In 1992, with growing enrollment and increasing demand for space, the school moved its campus to Burbank, where the campus remained until the school's closure in 2026. In 1997, ownership of the school was transferred to current Director Angie Peiris, under whose leadership it achieved WASC accreditation and gained entry to the National Association for College Admission Counseling.
Since the COVID-19 pandemic, the school has expanded its academic program to include both virtual and hybrid attendance options, though the majority of its student body attends in-person classes held on its Burbank campus.
In 2024, the school launched an After School Program serving both its own students and those from neighboring schools.
Closure
Brighton Hall School ceased operating as a K–12 independent school on June 5, 2026. Following the closure of its school program, the organization now operates solely as Starbright Learning Center, providing K - 12 educational support and enrichment services.
