Sir Quintus, Founding Knight — Still Leading the Charge
Sir Quintus, Q.I.’s most enduring Knight, has long been a symbol of excellence, resilience, and school pride. After years of representing the black and gold with honor, he has officially announced his next chapter.
Sir Quintus recently completed an accelerated leadership fellowship in Medieval Strategy and Advanced Knight Studies and is now pursuing a dual certification in Competitive Jousting and School Spirit Leadership.
His biggest win?
“The rigorous expectations at Q.I. prepared me for every battle — academic and otherwise. Whether defending the realm or leading pep rallies, excellence is the standard.”
He credits the Cambridge mindset for sharpening his strategic thinking and notes that balancing armor maintenance with a full tournament schedule “felt like a manageable workload compared to AICE season.”
Something he wishes others knew:
Hydration is important under 60 pounds of armor. Also, always study for your exams before entering combat.
Sir Quintus remains committed to mentoring young Knights and is currently exploring opportunities in motivational speaking, dragon management consulting, and possibly student government.
Thank you, Sir Quintus, for your continued service to the realm. Once a Knight, always a Knight.

Andrea McDaniel, Class of 2018, graduated from the University of Florida in 2022 with her bachelor’s degree in Pre-Professional Biology. She is currently pursuing her Doctorate in Physical Therapy at the University of St. Augustine and is on track to graduate in 2026.
Her biggest win?
“My bachelor’s degree was completely paid for thanks to Q.I. and the Cambridge program! I also knew how to study because of Q.I.’s rigorous coursework.”
Something she wants others to know:
“Some of my college classes had around 200 students in them—very different from the small class sizes at Q.I. Q.I. does a wonderful job preparing you for higher education. Learning your study style will be essential to your success in college.”
Thank you, Andrea, for sharing your journey. Once a Knight, always a Knight.

Mrs. Clark’s 8th-grade biology classes took a "deep dive" into genetics and adaptation. By testing out different grasping tools to mimic bird beaks, students got a hands-on look at how specific traits help species thrive in their environments.
From tweezers to pliers, our Knights are mastering the science of survival through active, engaging discovery. It’s this kind of "everyday" excellence that makes our classrooms so special.

William Clevenger, a proud member of Q.I.’s first graduating class in 2017, earned his Associate of Arts degree from St. Johns River State College before completing his Bachelor’s in Digital Media with a focus in Game Design at the University of Central Florida.
Today, he serves as the Creative Lead for a video game development company. You can also find him working at Magic Kingdom and Epic Universe—bringing creativity to life in more ways than one.
His biggest win?
“Honestly, the workload at Q.I. made all of my college classes feel like a cakewalk. None of the classes I had for either of my degrees compared to the coursework I was given at Q.I.—it almost over-prepared me! Being able to complete most of my Associate’s degree while still at Q.I. also saved me money and allowed me to start my bachelor’s program at UCF sooner since my general education credits were already done.”
Thank you, William, for sharing your journey. Once a Knight, always a Knight.
