Ava decided to enroll at Quantum on the encouragement of her brother, who graduated from the school a couple years earlier. She was immediately impressed with the support she was given to pursue her personal goals, and the flexible schedule that helped eliminate distractions and keep her focused on her work.

“I wanted to finish high school early to get started on my college work,” she says. “I love working with children. My goal is to get certified and teach at the elementary level.”

At Quantum, Ava was able to get a head start on her career path.

“What I like most about Quantum is that the schedule allows me to work at an elementary school in the morning and attend my classes in the afternoon.”

After graduating from Quantum, Ava started full-time work as a teacher’s aide, while also continuing her own education and earning her college degree.

“The teachers at Quantum helped me in my personal growth, and I want to help others grow as well.”
