​JACKIE WORKING, STUDENT SUPPORT SERVICES DIRECTOR

Hello Quest Families! I am Mrs. Working and I have been serving as Quest Academy’s Special Education Director since 2015. I have been with Quest since 2012, and have served as a special education teacher prior to moving to my current position. Before moving to Nevada, I served as a special education teacher in Maryland and overseas. I obtained my Bachelor’s Degree in Special Education from the University of the Philippines-Diliman, and Master’s Degree in Special Education and Endorsement in Educational Leadership from Western Governors University. In my free time, I enjoy cooking, exploring different food places, reading, and spending time with my husband and pup. I firmly believe that we all learn in different ways and at different paces, and so it is important to get to know what our students’ strengths are and how best they can learn new things. Our Special Ed Team and I are excited to work with our students and families this year!
