XCELerate Academy Applications
The Elanora State High School XCELerate Academies provide your child, our student, with a pathway perfectly suited to their own unique journey. With a strong desire to capitalise on community connections and the expertise of her staff, Elanora State High School Principal, Rochelle Lewis is the driving force behind these programs.
Here at Elanora State High School, we are fortunate enough to have on staff
three recipients of the Gold Coast Secondary Principal's Alliance 'Secondary Teacher of the Year Award' and two 'Secondary Leaders of the Year Award'. The calibre of our staff positions us to provide our students with a world class education, tailored to the individual needs of each student. We are limited only by our imaginations and together we can dream big. Underpinning our comprehensive suite of XCELerate Academies, is a strong focus on the environment and sustainability. Our school is set in what is, undeniably, one of the most sought-after areas of Australia; it makes sense to focus on nurturing our natural environment and developing our students’ capacity for caring for our home here on the Southern Gold Coast.
We look forward to welcoming you to the Elanora State High School Community.
