Summary

Academy Of Accelerated Learning is a public charter school in Houston, TX, serving 738 students from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade in a predominantly low-income area, where 88% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

This school presents a unique profile of strengths and challenges. Its most notable achievement is in advanced math: 79% of 8th graders taking Algebra I were proficient, far exceeding the state average of 54%. This is a significant advantage over nearby elementary schools like Gregg Elementary and Seguin Elementary, which do not offer this course. The school also shows strong results for its African American students and English Language Learners, with these groups ranking in the 67th and 71st percentiles statewide, respectively. However, overall academic performance is inconsistent. While the school recently improved to the 36th percentile statewide (2 stars), it still trails higher-performing neighbors like Cornelius Elementary (74th percentile) and Gregg Elementary (68th percentile) in standard grade-level math and reading. A critical weakness is the performance of Special Education students, who ranked in the 2nd percentile, indicating a significant area of need.

In summary, Academy Of Accelerated Learning is a school of contrasts. It excels at accelerating a select group of students into high school-level math and serves certain subgroups very well, but its overall core academic performance is middling compared to nearby schools. The school operates with larger class sizes (17:1 student-to-teacher ratio) and lower per-student spending than most of its neighbors, which may contribute to its mixed results. For parents, this school offers a unique PK-8 pathway and a strong advanced math track, but it is important to be aware of the gaps in standard grade-level proficiency and the challenges faced by Special Education students.
