Quotes

“We are always looking for hands-on learning experiences, and QUEST provides that” - Eric Yasui

“Because of the pandemic, kids did not get to develop social-emotional skills; they didn’t get to learn to work together since they were by themselves. Since implementing QUEST, they are a lot nicer to each other; they respect themselves more.  It gives them that sense of belonging that they are a part of something, they have a purpose.” - Alma Cuevas (teacher)

“It was fun, and I learned a lot of new things that I thought I would never, ever know! - student

“I had more fun playing with my teammates than playing alone.” - student

“The games are really fun.  We had fun working together.” - student
