As a retired 2 nd grade teacher, I highly recommend Crestview Elementary school. It has a diverse population with incredible parents who work with teachers to meet the needs of their students. This school is using technology and IPads to give students opportunities to read, work on math and to build background knowledge. The kids are happy, have a lot of enthusiasm, and seem to love learning.

When my daughter went to Crestview Elementary, she excelled. They have excellent special arts classes, wonderful teachers, and a principal who cares. My daughter recived one on one help from teachers when she needed it and she always felt safe there. The staff tries their best to know the kids and there are two wonderful secretaries to prove it. I loved my kid being at Crestview and I know they loved being there too. They had a lot of fun with all the activities. My daughter misses Crestview and I want everyone to know how great it is.
