My daughter has been at Quest for a year, and she loves it. I love it because they have challenged her, and pushed her to a level at least 2 years ahead of her local public school peers. The staff is engaged and responsive, the administration focused on giving all of the kids an exemplary education. There is not enough praise I can give them.

If you can get your child enrolled, do it. I wish I had found Responsive Ed years ago. My son is finally being challenged. The teachers actually care about the students. The Principal is suportive, approachable, and available. This is what "public" school should look like.

After 5 years of home schooling, we decided on a wider venture and enrolled my daughter at Quest. The staff are friendly and responsive, the teachers are personable and skilled and the campus is ideally suited to the style of school. The kids are taught in a manner that encourages personal success. They are also taught a more global view, and have a number of community service projects to help others. I am very impressed by this school.

Quest is a fantastic school. My children have been in the Responsive Ed charter schools for 5 years, starting at their Elementary school, Vista Academy. I have not found more interested teachers, more caring staff anywhere. My son is thriving with the challenge of work tailored to him, which has made going to school exciting again! In addition to core classes and elective, this school helps to develop positive character traits in each of it's students, using 7 Habits studies and grade-level and schoolwide projects to help the community. These Responsive Ed schools truly partner with its families in the raising of our children. Parents are welcome any time and are encouraged to volunteer. I highly recommend checking them out.

About the tests


In 2010-2011, the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) was used to test students in reading in grades 3 through 9; in writing in grades 4 and 7; in English language arts in grades 10 and 11; in mathematics in grades 3 through 11; in science in grades 5, 8, 10 and 11; and in social studies in grades 8, 10 and 11. TAKS is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Texas. The grade 11 Exit Level TAKS is a high school graduation requirement. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
