Quest Charter Academy opened in 2010 with 5th-7th grades and 8th grade added in the fall of 2011. A new 5th grade class was added each year until Quest became a complete 5th-12th grade school with 600 students in the 2015-2016 school year. Walk through the doors of our school and you would feel a palpable sense of something unique and strong. Students’ faces of all nationalities, race, economic ba
ckgrounds and scholastic levels exude unspoken confidence. Hallways buzz with excitement and the moment you are introduced to the students and faculty, it becomes clear that this is a school that changes lives. We have a culture built on a common set of values, student, teacher, and parent accountability, and high expectations all resulting in high levels of student achievement. Our administrators, teachers and guardians have high expectations of our students and students have high expectations of their teachers. There is a sense of teamwork involving everyone from parents, administrators, businesses and bus drivers. Everyone is working toward a single goal; student achievement. Our teachers have a thirst for teaching and students develop a thirst for learning. Uncertain futures brim with unlimited opportunity in our school. Our students sparkle when talking about their school, their success and their future. Quest Charter Academy is governed by the Peoria Charter School Initiative Board of Directors which is the charter holder and has the ultimate responsibility and accountability to our sponsor/authorizer. The Board governs and oversees all operations of Quest Charter Academy. This Board of Directors is comprised of individuals with diverse backgrounds and expertise, who are committed to improve high quality public education choices in our community.
