Educating Grades 5-12
we prepare students for the future
Excel is a network of tuition-free charter public schools in East Boston and Chelsea, Massachusetts and North Providence, Rhode Island.
Our schools offer life-changing opportunities that prepare students for college and beyond. We prepare and support our students to become self-advocates so that when they leave our halls, they can pave a path to success that is meaningful to them.
