Summary

Crestview Elementary in New Boston, TX, serves 544 students in grades PK-5 within the New Boston Independent School District (Isd), a high-poverty community where over 84% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. The school has recently shown a dramatic turnaround, jumping from the 25th percentile statewide in 2024-2025 to the 46th percentile in 2025-2026—a 21-point improvement that outpaces nearby schools. This progress is supported by an exceptionally low student-to-teacher ratio of 10.8:1, far better than neighbors like Hooks Elementary (18.2:1) and Pleasant Grove Intermediate (16:1), and higher per-student spending of $12,102 compared to Nash Elementary ($8,180).

A standout strength is Crestview’s exceptional support for Special Education students, who ranked in the 84th percentile statewide in 2023-2024—a remarkable achievement not matched by most area schools. Early literacy is also on the rise, with 3rd-grade reading proficiency climbing from 30% in 2022-2023 to 63.38% in 2025-2026, now well above the state average of 51.08%. However, the school faces a persistent challenge in 4th-grade math, where only 19.54% of students were proficient in 2025-2026, compared to the state average of 49.28%—a gap that has persisted for three years. This contrasts sharply with 3rd and 5th-grade math scores, which beat state averages, suggesting a specific instructional gap at the 4th-grade level.

Compared to high-performing neighbors like Red Lick Elementary (99th percentile) and Malta Elementary (80th percentile), Crestview still lags significantly, but its recent gains are promising. The school’s ability to sustain momentum will depend on closing the 4th-grade math crisis and ensuring its most vulnerable “At Risk” students—who ranked in the 5th percentile in 2021-2022—are not left behind. For parents, Crestview offers a dedicated, resource-rich environment with small classes and a clear focus on improvement, but it remains a work in progress with notable academic gaps to address.
