Summary

Crescent School is a K-12 alternative school serving 228 students in a single building within the Crescent School District in Port Angeles, WA, operating with a favorable student-teacher ratio of about 11-to-1.

The school has notable strengths, including a graduation rate consistently above the state average and a particularly outstanding science program, where student proficiency significantly exceeds both state and local benchmarks. For example, it dramatically outperforms nearby Seaview Academy in subjects like math and science. However, academic performance varies considerably by grade level, with some grades showing very strong results in English Language Arts while others show concerningly low proficiency, indicating inconsistent support across different years.

Crescent School benefits from very high per-student spending compared to other schools, which supports its small class sizes. While it serves a population with moderate economic need, this need is lower than at some comparable alternative schools in the area. The school demonstrated strong recovery in graduation rates following the pandemic, and its overall stability and resources make it a distinctive option within the region's educational landscape.
