According to principal Aaron Schwartz, former COO of Archimedes Academy, "Quest balances traditional academic needs with a belief that students today can and do learn in different ways, often through work with digital media, games, online networks, and mobile technologies. Kids today use digital media as part of their everyday interactions--their learning should too."
