La Quenta Lewis is studying at the Rivet School. She is a mother of three, a wife, and the operations manager at an elementary school in Inglewood, California. She’s also pursuing a higher education at the same time as her daughter. But thanks to Rivet School’s competency-based learning model, which allows students to earn credit based on their knowledge of a subject instead of time spent in class, La Quenta is able to balance school, work, and life while also supporting her daughter’s educational pursuit.
