0x

A student who gets into Excel Academy through our blind lottery is four times as likely to graduate from college as a student attending a comparative district school.

ENROLL

Excel Academy is a network of tuition-free charter public schools. Students are admitted through a blind public lottery. Every year, over 1,250 students apply to attend our schools.

WORK

Excel is a community of ambitious and kind changemakers who believe all students are capable of amazing things.

Every year, we look for more educators who believe we can create a transformative education for our students to join our team.

VISIT

Excel hosts an average of 450 people annually from around the country, primarily other educators, who come to observe our schools in action. These visits are part of a collaborative effort to share best practices in academics and operations.

GIVE

Excel is a public school district and therefore a majority of our budget is covered by the state’s per-pupil reimbursement. However, Excel raises private money to support our CAPS program, that supports students for up to six years after high school graduation and offers over $100,000 in scholarships.
