Summary

Crestview High School is a large public high school in Crestview, FL, serving 2,376 students in grades 9-12 as part of the high-performing Okaloosa County school district, which is ranked in the top 18% of Florida districts.

Crestview High School stands out for its exceptionally high graduation rate, which reached 99.0% in the 2024-2025 school year—nearly 7 points higher than the district average and on par with the elite Collegiate High School At Northwest Florida State College (100%) and slightly above Niceville Senior High School (98.6%). However, this success contrasts with a steady decline in its state academic ranking, which has dropped from the 81st percentile in 2016 to the 64th percentile in 2026. The school also serves a much more economically diverse population, with over 50% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch—more than double the rate at Niceville Senior High (21.81%) and Collegiate High School (23.54%). Chronic absenteeism (18.2%) is higher than these nearby peers, though better than the state average.

A key area for improvement is math proficiency, particularly in Algebra 1, where only 39% of students were proficient compared to the state average of 63%—a 24-point gap. In contrast, the school outperforms the state in Biology 1 (84% vs. 74%) and matches state averages in English Language Arts. Per-student spending at Crestview ($8,734) is lower than at Niceville ($9,198) and Collegiate High ($12,204), which may contribute to these academic challenges. Overall, Crestview High excels at ensuring students graduate but faces significant hurdles in math achievement and reversing its long-term ranking decline.
