“I hadn’t found a lot of schools that fit my personality and what I’d been through. At YouthBuild Charter I’ve done a complete 180. I never saw potential in myself, but now I see myself changing. This school works with me to guide me towards my dreams and goals.”

I had tried other adult schools before to get my GED or my high school equivalency. However, they never seemed right for me so I would always stop going. For some reason the YouthBuild Charter School was different though. I would wake up in the morning actually wanting to go to school.

I didn’t know if it was a good thing or bad. But I gave it a chance and so should others. I respect this school a lot and will be proud to be a YouthBuild Charter graduate. If it wasn’t for this school, I don’t know where I would be today or what would have happened to me.

I loved that the staff there treated you like family. They were like the family I never had. They gave me so much support, it was amazing. At YouthBuild Charter, the teachers were always there to motivate you, and they wouldn’t give up on you.
