Our Story

Born from a Dream

BrightStars Academy was founded in 2008 by Mrs. Eunice Chebet, a retired Kenya Teachers Service Commission educator with a passion for early childhood development. With just 45 pupils and 3 classrooms in Elgon View, she set out to build something different β€” a school where every child is treated as a star.

Today, BrightStars is home to over 850 pupils, 42 teachers and a full campus with modern classrooms, computer lab, science room, library and sports fields. Our KCPE results consistently place us among the top 10 primary schools in Uasin Gishu County.

We are proudly CBC-aligned, parent-engaging and community-rooted β€” a school that Eldoret families trust generation after generation.
