Summary

Crestworth Elementary School in Baton Rouge, LA, serves 427 students from Pre-Kindergarten through 8th grade in a high-poverty community where over 94% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Crestworth has made a remarkable academic comeback after pandemic-era struggles. The school's most recent test scores show a dramatic 34-point jump in math proficiency—from 29% to 63% in a single year—making it the top-performing school in its immediate area. Crestworth now outperforms nearby schools like Progress Elementary School, Brownfields Elementary School, Claiborne Elementary School, and Sharon Hills Elementary School in both math and English language arts. The school also surpasses the East Baton Rouge Parish district average in math and nearly matches it in English. A standout feature is the school's very low student-teacher ratio of 12.5:1, which allows for more individualized attention compared to other local options.

Despite these academic gains, Crestworth faces a serious challenge with chronic absenteeism—over half of students are chronically absent, a rate far higher than the district and state averages. This creates a paradox: the school achieves strong growth for students who attend regularly, but many are missing too much school. If the school can address this attendance issue, its performance could improve even further. For families considering their options, Crestworth stands out as a bright spot in the area, showing that effective instruction can make a real difference even in challenging circumstances.
