Sharing facilities with South Pointe Junior High School in South Phoenix, Quest High School is a tuition-free public charter school catering to students in ninth through twelfth grades who require an alternative to traditional public schools. Most notably, the school’s mission is to cultivate discipline and accountability in its students to help them become more productive citizens. As students here are more likely to have adult responsibilities or other life challenges that might interfere with their education, Quest High operates to eliminate obstacles and provide more flexibility with helpful options including night classes, credit recovery courses, and even early graduation. Quest integrates vocational and academic curricula to prepare students for careers or college after graduation and provides one-to-one technology to help all students access digital resources and opportunities. The school partners with Arizona State University, Maricopa Community Colleges, and other local universities and organizations to help students pursue careers or higher education after graduation. Outside of the core classes in English, math, history, and science, students can choose from a range of self-paced online courses and electives, from cosmetology and culinary arts to hospitality and veterinary science in addition to a variety of others. Dedicated social-emotional support staff are also on-hand to help every student feel heard and mentored as they decide on paths to take for future success.

An amazing experience!!! The school's understanding of my needs as a student who lived by himself since turning 16 years old, was what made the difference and encouraged me to not give up and keep on studying to achieve my High School diploma.
