This school is awful!! So what if you child is an honor student....if your not into sports or the "popular" kids then they do nothing for you. The school needs to focus on academics more! The staff is ok not great. If I could get my child out of there a would! Fights every week. It's a mess!

I have been very impressed with Crestview Middle School. The administration and teachers are some of the best in the county. They are dedicated to their students and do everything in their power to make learning a positive experience. I have been extremely pleased with my child's education.

I have a daughter that attends this school and some very tough kids go here because of the zone. I am very impressed with the administration and staff. These people are concerned and run a very good school. Many resources are available and teachers really care. Some things are inevitable but this is probably one of the best schools in the state when compared with similar schools as far as poverty city varibles.
