“My time in Passages has done so much for my life and my future. When I first got into Wayfinder I was so lost. I had no academic goals. A mutual friend of mine recommended Wayfinder to me while I was struggling with where I was and where I wanted to go in life. I did my interview and I met my wonderful teacher, Cindy. She helped form me into the person I am today. She gave me optimism, strength, and hope for what lies ahead. I actually have goals for myself and I know I can achieve them. I'll be forever grateful for this school.”-Brekyn W., Class of 2025

“I’m still finding out how strong I really am, but I know without Wayfinder I might have never found my voice.”-Jaimy S., Class of 2025

“This school gave me a chance to focus on myself, to grow and learn independently with caring people around for support. I was able to develop hope.”-Hayley H., Class of 2025  

“Wayfinder gave me a fresh start, and it helped me find my strength again and believe in my future.”-Liam O., Class of 2025
