Lorain Bilingual Academy Wins 2023 “Outstanding Growth in Reading” Accely Award

Congratulations to Lorain Bilingual Academy for winning an Outstanding Growth in Reading award at the annual leadership summit held this July. The award recognizes the exceptional progress the school achieved on their testing benchmarks in reading from fall 2022 to spring 2023.

Recognizing the hard work and success of our schools and school leaders is an important tradition at ACCEL Schools. While schools across the country are still recovering from challenges related to the pandemic, we have seen a surge in success from schools serving historically underrecognized communities.

“We are mission driven to make quality education available to all children regardless of geographic location or life circumstances,” said ACCEL Schools CEO Ron Packard who presented the awards on July 17. “It is an honor to recognize the staff and leadership who are putting ACCEL’s ideals into action and creating positive change in the lives of the students and communities who need it most.”

Congratulations to every member of our school community for contributing to our success in 2023. We are honored to accept this Accely award on behalf of our entire team and look forward to another extraordinary school year.

The ACCEL Schools Difference

We are a proud member of ACCEL Schools—a public charter school network serving thousands of PK-12 students throughout the United States. ACCEL was founded in 2012 by the early pioneers of online learning. Our leadership believes that all children, regardless of location or socio-economic background, deserve a quality education that prepares them to succeed in school and become productive global citizens.  

ACCEL Schools Instructional Model provides: 

  • Aligned Academics meet or exceed state standards ensuring your child is on track for rigorous college and career opportunities.    
  • Certified, Licensed Teachers and a student-centered staff are united in executing our mission to make a difference in the life trajectory of each student.    
  • More Time on Task and double the instructional minutes for ELA and Math maximizes learning in your child’s school day.   
  • Short Cycle Assessments keep track of how students are progressing in the program, giving teachers ongoing feedback so they can tailor instruction to your student’s needs.    
  • Individualized Instruction driven by assessment data means we are familiar with the needs of each child and set students up for success in each course of study.    
  • State Testing Preparation reduces the anxiety often associated with high stakes tests, helping our teachers and students feel confident with the structure and methodology of state exams.    
  • Academic Support including education technology, interventional specialists, and instructional aides assist students during the school day. After school tutoring, summer school, and Saturday school programs extend support services beyond the traditional school day and year.   
  • Extracurricular Courses & Activities round out our educational offerings providing students social-emotional learning, athletics, arts, service learning & more.

We are looking forward to a productive partnership with you and your children to ensure they achieve their highest potential.  We recognize that to be successful in our school, our children need support from both home and school. We ask that you guide and support your child’s learning by ensuring that he/she:

  1. Attends school daily and arrives on time at 7:30am
  2. Completes all homework assignments given by teachers
  3. Reads daily to develop a love for reading

For the 2021-2022 school year all students are required to wear a school uniform. This consists of khaki, black, or navy bottoms and a solid color top. You will find the dress code specifics on the Resources page. However, on Fridays only or the last day of the school week, students may dress down for $1. This money will be used towards field trips and extra rewards for our students.

You will also find the school supply list on the Resources page. You are more then welcome to drop the supplies off during our open house Monday, August 16th from 5-6:30. Students will also be able to meet their teachers during this time. We look forward to a great school year. If you have any questions, please contact our office at 440-434-6320.
