DeBary K-8 Petition

The City of Debary has a public need for a K-8 educational facility and there are significant limitations on available land in the city of DeBary for the construction of a new school. A comprehensive analysis of all available land within the city limits suggests that +/- 30 acres on Spring Vista Dr adjacent to the Springview community is the best location for a public K-8 school.

I support the building of the new City of Debary K-8 set to open for the 2026 - 2027 school year, located at the corner of Spring Vista Dr and Shell Rd, adjacent to the Springview Community. The K-8 School was approved unanimously by the Volusia County School Board and Debary's local School Board Member, Jamie Haynes. This state-of-the-art school is uniquely designed to alleviate traffic and provide the families of Debary with a neighborhood school. The K-8 will remove the need to bus 617 children out of the city of Debary for school. With the school designed to accommodate 800 elementary-school-aged-children and 500 middle-school-aged-children, it will ease the overcrowding in our current schools. The new Debary K-8 is dedicated to serve the families of Debary!
