The goal for Quest for Success is to increase opportunities for our students to have success in literacy, mathematics, social development, family support and community involvement.
In addition to the support of the program staff, we will be utilizing resources that are available in Jefferson County to help support our students and families. Coleman Professional Services will provide counselors that will support students’ social development; Brightway Center will provide programming that promotes positive relationships and decision-making; Franciscan University’s Education Department will serve as partners to host family literacy events; and the Jefferson County Educational Service Center will provide programming that promotes college and career readiness skills. New Reward Program available to Quest Students! |
