Re-engaging and graduating disconnected high school students

The nation's most forward-thinking districts choose Acceleration Academies.

As the nation's leading provider of flexible alternative education, Acceleration Academies partners with school districts across the U.S. to support 5,000+ students on a more promising education journey. We replace the traditional bell schedule with a research-backed learning approach to engage, coach, support, and enable over-aged and under-credited students to get and stay on track to earn their high school diploma.

Make an Impact

Acceleration Academies provides a year-round, extended-day, in-person, flexible blended learning model to achieve credit recovery and address academic needs and financial, social, and emotional barriers to school success.

Together, we can change the trajectory for students who have fallen behind or left school.

Why Partner

What District Superintendents Say

As a school system, we must meet our kids where they are. And this is what we’re doing in partnership with Acceleration Academies. We can’t do it alone. All of you who are working, helping, mentoring, and supporting our children… thank you.

Dr. Jesus F. Jara

Former Superintendent Clark County Schools

I've been a superintendent for 22 years in two different states, and during that time, there were only two different programs that I came across that I would recommend. Acceleration Academies is one of them. They get the job done, do exactly what they say they will do, and do it with the highest degree of professionalism.

Tom Seigel

Former Superintendent Bethel School District

"If there is no coordinated effort to recapture kids who have quit, then we're failing them twice."

Dr. Jon Prince

Superintendent St. Lucie Public Schools

$8.8 million

Acceleration Academies has generated over $8.8 million in recovery funding for our district partners.

Our 17 School District Partners

Acceleration Academies students thrive across 20 campus locations in seven states.

80% nearby

Eighty percent of students who are no longer engaged in high school remain within seven miles of their school. By re-connecting students with their teachers, peers, and mentors - communities interrupt a cycle or risk, poverty, and social costs.

We know the why. Together, we find a way.
