Crestwood High School
The school is average. There are teachers that shine but the atmosphere is mediocre. The general feeling that the young men should not succeed because its not cool. There are issues with mean girls.

Crestwood High School
NA: This is likely the worst school ever. They are racist against whites, several of the teachers have given up, and when a teacher is out they don't get replaced with substitutes even though the teacher was gone over one month. The computer classes use books so far outdated they don't even apply anymore, only kids that are doing well are allowed books in some classes, and books they have in others are terribly outdated. I feel bad for the teachers that do care and want to teach because the kids for the most part don't want to learn. I regret ever exposing my child to this school. If I could give a 0 I would. Oh, and with their "lack of moeny" for essentials, they still come up with the funds to repave everything...we all see where their priorities are.
