I have been spending my evenings talking to neighbors who are worried about their children losing their school community. The district board is meeting soon to discuss these boundaries and it is vital we hold our ground until they listen to us.

Seeing this community unite over our children and their neighborhood schools proves how much this matters to all of us. I am overwhelmed by the momentum we have built together to keep our families at Quest. We are finally catching the attention of the people who make these decisions.

We purchased our house specifically for Quest and propose alternative solutions to solve school challenges, such as, tax to increase funds, temporary buildings etc. If rezoning is the only option, homes closer to Rockledge should go first.
Ralph Williams is not accessible from Pinehurst/Wickham for us, only Viera Blvd. Viera Blvd. is to be widened. We do not have a traffic light at Holiday Springs and Viera at this time, and have had numerous accidents at that intersection. We do need 95+ kids and parents traveling this high risk road.
We live in Strom Park & want our children next year to go to Quest. There is no reason to rezone Parts of Strom to another school when there is one across the street!
This is some serious elitist nonsense I'm reading here. I live within the "Viera" zip code and CHOOSE to send my child to Ralph Williams instead of Manatee. Williams is a lovely school with wonderful staff who care about ALL children and their education, not just those from the more privileged zip code. Diversity is not a disease. I too oppose the change in boundaries....I too believe Viera poorly planned for this inevitability....but let's think about and discuss how to make our whole community part of the solution instead of drawing lines and declaring zip code superiority.
Just bought a house in a community (Sandhill Crossing) specifically to keep my son at Quest. My son is devastated that he may have to change schools. :-(
Viera is a master PLANNED community....growth did not happen over night. Schools and education should be priority and at the forefront of this growth....not an after thought. Do not remove existing students from their school. Accelerate the building of new schools and do not keep moving boundaries.
I feel quest is a better school the RE. I feel that my daughter deserves the best not just good enough.

I have kida at Ralph Williams and do not feel adding over 100 kids to our school will benefit our children. We have a small community school where our kids can get a very personalized school experience and education. Bringing in kids is not the answer to poor planning and budgeting of new schools.
