Whether students are coming directly from home, or transitioning from another facility, Life Quest Girls Academy offers each student an opportunity to be independent as they learn and practice valuable 21st century skills that give them the confidence needed to be successful in life once they transition back home or into adulthood.
students are expected to hold other students accountable for conducting themselves in a safe, appropriate manner while living amongst one another.
Being in Charge of Your Own Life We understand that each student is different with unique, individual needs. Where some approaches work for one student, it may not work for others. Life Quest believes that each student who enters should be entrusted with a sense of freedom academically, as well as freedom to thrive in worthy, after school activities and endeavors conducive to their individual passions and interests.

Learning styles and interests vary per student, and Life Quest takes seriously the need for every student experience to be unique and conducive to their individual strengths and interests. Students learn in an open-campus environment, giving each student a more normalized teenage school and life experience. There is no behavior-based leveled system to advance through, no points to earn or lose, no hoops to jump through, and no 24/7 locked doors. Instead, there is a self-governing system in place that allows each student to gain confidence in themselves, be able to hold other students accountable, and create their future as they take charge of their own learning.
