QUEST ACADEMY

Quest Academy is a public charter elementary school that is part of the Quest Academy school district, located in Raleigh, NC with about 141 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 8th Grade. With about 10 teachers, Quest Academy has a student/teacher ratio of about 14:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.
