Forward-Thinking High Schools
Founded by Opportunity Education, Quest Forward Academies are forward-thinking high schools that believe students need skills over memorization, empowerment to own their learning, and individually challenging academics.
At Quest Forward Academies, the four years of high school is a time for extraordinary personal growth. Students create a vision for their future and set goals to get themselves there, learning how to continue that growth for their adult lives.
The two flagship Quest Forward Academies are in Omaha, Nebraska and Santa Rosa, California, with more on the horizon in the fall of 2022 and 2023.

What makes it a Quest Forward Academy?
All Quest Forward Academies are academically rigorous with skills-forward, project-based learning. They are all founded on the same guiding principles — inspired by decades of research — and incorporate a framework of learning skills, work skills, and self skills that drive the unique curriculum and our students’ daily work.
This focus ensures that Quest Forward Academy students have more than content knowledge when they graduate — they are fully prepared with the skills necessary to succeed in work and life, in any path they choose.
