Information Regarding the Quest 2017 – 2018 School Year

1) We are not an exclusive home school group or a teaching co-op. Our students come from all educational
environments, although most are home schooled. We are unapologetically Christian and stand on a plain
reading of the word of God. Our teachers all have a love of teaching and are expert teachers, many of them
holding advanced degrees in their fields. Our teachers ARE paid. We are dependent on your generous
donations in order to make payroll and to buy supplies, fund the website, maintain the storage of supplies,
and run the many programs Quest has to offer. Please pray over what you can do for Quest. We only want
donations that the Holy Spirit leads you to give.

2) In the 2017-2018 school year there are 29 weeks; 13 in the fall and 16 in the spring. The suggested
donations listed with each class description are per week, not per semester. Classes begin the week of
Sept 12.

3) Prerequisites: if you took a prerequisite for a class in a place other than Quest, please provide proof that
you passed the class with at least a ‘B’ with either a transcript or letter from the teacher.

4) Class Information: In blue, at the end of the class description is the teacher’s name. In red are the items,
including text books, that students will need for the class. Many of the classes do not yet have the needed
text books listed. That information will be made available in the next couple of weeks. In purple, are the
recommended donations for each class.

5) Costume Fee: There will be a costume fee for many of the dance classes. Details will be given to
parents by the teachers when needed. Our teachers do the very best they can to find inexpensive costumes.
Please keep in mind, if you sign up for more than one dance class, there will be different costumes/expenses
for each.

6) Performance Fee: There will also be a small performance fee of $5 per student for all fine arts students to
help cover costs of building rental for the Fine Arts Festival. This fee is due by Mar 31 , 2016. If you sign
st
up for a fine arts class, you are expected to participate in the Fine Arts Festival. No exceptions will be
granted for any reason other than severe illness. There are no tickets sold. All attendance is free and
donations are accepted for those led to do so.

7) This catalog will undergo updates throughout the summer of 2017. Please check back often for any new
information on your classes.

8) Quest Drop/Add Policy: The first two weeks of classes, starting in September each year, are open for
students to drop or add them. It is meant to be a trial period for students and families to see if a class is the
right fit.
Add: Some classes will remain open for students all year. If you decide later on to add a class, or know
someone that would like to add, please contact us.
Drop: After the two week deadline is up, anyone deciding to drop a class will be required to pay a $100 fee
per student per class. If you fail to pay the fee, you will not be able to register for any future classes until the account
is brought current. We do this because after two weeks, the teachers contracts are solidified and we are locked into
paying them. We have also purchased supplies for your student for the year and solidified the contract with the church
detailing how much we will pay. We are also striving for excellence, so we need you to be committed and to be
serious about attendance and
