Accelerated District

Accelerated District is an active, independent charter school district located at 4000 South Main Street in Los Angeles, California. Operating within a dynamic, large-city environment in the Los Angeles metropolitan area, the district functions as a single-school local educational agency focused on early childhood and middle-grades development. It serves a continuous academic pathway spanning from kindergarten through eighth grade, preparing young learners for high school within a unified educational campus. Community members, parents, and researchers can explore the district’s academic programs and offerings online through its official site (accelerated.org/our-schools/tas) or by reaching out to its central administration.

The district supports a student body of 729 children, with a nearly equal gender balance of 362 female and 367 male students. Reflecting its surrounding neighborhood, the student population is predominantly Hispanic (718 students), alongside small representations of Black and White students. Accelerated District places a strong emphasis on instructional support, maintaining a comprehensive workforce of over 211 full-time equivalent (FTE) team members. This includes approximately 73.5 FTE classroom teachers—yielding an attentive student-to-teacher ratio of under ten to one—as well as 25 FTE instructional aides and nearly 113 FTE specialized support staff. This rich staffing framework allows the district to offer targeted classroom guidance, robust interventions, and wrap-around services tailored to the needs of its elementary and middle school community.
