Learn about the people behind our school!

Our History

Excel High School was founded in 2004 by a group of educators and business professionals that identified the need to improve the way that children and adults learn. We also wanted to expand educational opportunities across the world. Our goal is to give every person, regardless of their age and circumstances, the opportunity to earn an accredited, American high school diploma or complete needed make-up credits. Our accredited, online high school diploma programs, are perfect for students who desire a cutting edge, flexible online high school program. Our experienced instructors and staff really care about the success of our students!

We use today’s most recent and up-to-date, standards-based, fully accredited curriculum. There are no 10-year old books in our school. With current technology, it is plausible to bring accredited online courses to students' all over the world. Students only need access to the Internet and the desire to learn. From our initial goal of offering online high school programs to high school age students, Excel now offers a complete 6-12 curriculum for middle school, college readiness, honors programs, adult high school programs and digital curricula to other schools and colleges. Excel has continued to provide the most intuitive, accredited online high school courses available anywhere. Excel serves students in all 50-States and around the world.

In 2016, Excel has expanded to become an independent school district comprised of two online high schools and middle school, Excel High School and Northgate Academy. Excel Education Systems, Inc., Excel High School's parent organization, was approved by our Accrediting Agency to advance to District/Systems status.  In 2019, Excel acquired Washington Online Learning Institute, a regionally accredited career college offering programs in Business, Legal Studies, Criminal Justice, Health Care and IT. Excel is very proud of our unique and dynamic organization.

Can an Online High School be Fun?

More and more people these days are concerned about safety in our public schools, especially at the high school level. Many families consider homeschooling or an online high school, but they wonder if an online high school can be enjoyable for the kids.

While it is true that a child may miss out on some of the extra-curricular activities at the local high school, taking courses through an online high school can be a lot of fun. For one thing, you can complete your studies faster and out in fewer hours each day. It is possible to complete high school in as little as 2 ½ years which leaves a lot more time open for having fun and enjoying their teen years. Excel's courses are flexible and asynchronous. This means you can login to your online courses anytime day or night. All studies are done online, and there is no homework. Our courses are interactive and offer an exceptional, individualized learning experience. Our online courses are loaded with videos, online exercises, and engaging learning resources. With our online courses, every student has a front row seat to ensure that learning happens. We see better outcomes when learning is exciting and fun.

Why Choose an Online High School?

There are many good reasons you might choose to enroll your son or daughter in online High School programs. The world is becoming an increasingly dangerous place and in many areas, it just isn't safe to send your children to the public schools. Not to mention the fact that you just might not like the values and political viewpoints the schools are pushing these days or the extreme peer pressure that leads too many teens into drugs, alcohol, and premature sexual activity. Maybe you live in an area that is geographically challenging, or you are a military family that travels. If you have experienced a teenage pregnancy or expulsion from school, an online high school might offer the perfect solution for your situation.

Choosing an online High School allows you greater control over your child's environment and gives them the opportunity to learn in a safe and caring atmosphere... Adults also appreciate the flexibility of taking online courses that work well with their work and family schedule.

For whatever reason, you are considering attending high school online, we believe that Excel High School is the perfect choice.

Excel High School is a great school! My daughter was in another online high school last year, but she was not challenged and was not being prepared for college.

Since starting this year at Excel, she is being fully challenged in honors courses. My daughter told me the other day, "mom, I have never had to work so hard in school". We love you Excel High School and Anna will be with you until she graduates next year.
