Message from the Principal
Ánimo Inglewood Charter High School is located in Inglewood, California. Our charter was approved by the State Department of Education and the school currently has students enrolled in grades 9 through 12.
Ánimo Inglewood Charter High School is located in a repurposed hospital building in the heart of Inglewood. It opened in 2002 after Green Dot successfully petitioned the State Department of Education to overturn Inglewood Unified School District’s refusal to grant the school a charter. The school has become a model of Green Dot success with more graduates attending UCLA than those from any other school, public or private, in the city.
Sincerely,
