More About Us

We Like to Meet Entrepreneurs

While we invest at Series A (generally, when a company is over $2M in revenue), we like to meet founders before they’re raising their Series A – to build a relationship, learn more about the company, and allow them to get to know us.  Please do reach out.

Founded in 2014, Acceleration Academies is a national leader in re-engaging young adults not experiencing success in a traditional high school setting. 


Acceleration Academies partners with school districts across the U.S. to offer dropout recovery and re-engagement services, credit recovery, and a flexible personalized alternative for students (and former students) to earn a customary district issued high school diploma. They offer in-person and online options so that students can work anytime from anywhere, plus a social and emotional support system to remove impediments that have caused students to struggle in a traditional setting. 


Their research-based program is currently supporting over 5,000 students with "personalized learning plans" in partnership with school districts in eight states.
