A tradition of excellence in academic and character education. Dedicated teachers and wonderful principal. Very diverse with many languages and cultures. My kids had an excellent education here. Amazing parent involvement.

Crestmoor is small school nestled in the hills of San Bruno. It has an impressive teaching and administrative staff, excellent parental involvement, and provides a small town nuturing atmosphere to the perfectly diverse range of children and their families. With about 50% of the student body being comprised of kids who transferred into our school, it isn't surprising that Crestmoor Elementary school has a high California API score. http://api.cde.ca.gov/Acnt2011/2011GrowthSch.aspx?allcds=41690136044630

We love Crestmoor-- couldn't ask for a more caring school for my children. Crestmoor is like a family- children receiving an excellent education and learning to be positive members of the community.

Crestmoor is a fantastic, small school with a staff dedicated to the best possible education for our children. The community is very dedicated to the school, and the parent participation is amazing. I have 3 children, and am looking forward to them completing their elementary education at Crestmoor.

My son is a second grader at Crestmoor. He's attended since kindergarten and I am very pleased with the high level of education and extra curricular activities he receives. There is active participation and involvement by the families of the students and I'm very proud that my son goes to school here. We have a very nice tight knit community here and it shows in the test scores, the overflowing attendance at events and the smiles in our kids faces. I hope to see this school around until my son completes grade school in 5th grade.

Crestmoor is a great community school. It is relatively small. The teachers are fantastic. Lots of PTO activities. My kid really enjoys the experience and thrives. New principle brings energy and focus into the school. I felt it really sets a good example of what public school should be: community based safe learning institutions.

Crestmoor is a wonderful school and there is alot of parent- teacher involment, i have an older child and she is bright even though her school was not a top San Bruno school, but i really noticed the difference when there is parent envolment in our previous school there were no parent volunteers for field trips and academic help here you have to see if there is a spot to volunteer a drivers, the school is very diverse and there is extra help children that need it. My Son loves to read and is encouraged to challenge himself, and this is due to the teachers.

Crestmoor is a small school. It has wonderful experienced teachers and a fresh, new principal. The PTO works to provide PE, ART, and Music programs as well as assemblies and field trips. It does a superb job of meeting student needs.

Crestmoor is more than an excellent school. We moved into the Crestmoor area before having children, and didn't do the research on schools until our kids were heading into school age. We have said time and time again, that we lucked out that Crestmoor is our school. The numbers speak for themselves, but what I love most about the school are the dedicated teachers and the community. Each of the teachers that my kids have had, really know my children and have been so wonderful about keeping us posted on their development in conferences, information sent home and on an informal basis such as before or after school. In addition to that, we have found a wonderful community of parents. The events the PTO puts on are so much fun, and I feel that we parents benefit from the school community as much as our kids do. We are thrilled to be a Crestmoor family.

Before deciding on a school, I research many websites, and all pointed to Crestmoor. Our family can't afford private school so we looked at the highest rated public schools from Daly City to San Bruno and so grateful that we decided on Crestmoor. Our older son is finishing up 1st grade and we've seen him make great strides in the classroom and love how much attention is dedicated to each student. The atmosphere is one of the highlights of the school, such a community and family feel...it's also special that most of the staff knows every kids name. It's a safe and loving environment which reminds me of the way public schools used to be 30 years ago. Highly recommended and where my 3 year old will be attending soon!
