Summary

Crestwood High School in Dearborn Heights, MI, is a large public high school serving 1,272 students in grades 9-12 within the Crestwood School District, a community where about two-thirds of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Crestwood stands out as a strong academic option in the area, particularly given its student demographics. The school ranks in the 48th percentile statewide, which is notably higher than nearby Robichaud Senior High School (9th percentile) and Garden City High School (37th percentile), despite serving a higher percentage of low-income students than Garden City. In fact, Crestwood outperforms Robichaud dramatically across all subjects—for example, 44.1% of Crestwood 11th graders scored proficient on SAT Evidence-Based Reading and Writing versus just 23.2% at Robichaud. The school also excels with its African American students, ranking in the 79th percentile statewide for this group, and achieves strong graduation outcomes with a 91.9% four-year rate, well above the state average of 84%. This success comes with efficient spending of $16,407 per student, less than Robichaud's $23,817.

Parents should know that Crestwood has shown steady improvement over recent years, climbing from the 39th percentile in 2022-2023 to its current 48th percentile, with significant gains in science and social studies proficiency. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 22.3% is better than the state average but remains an area for attention. One notable challenge is that English Language Learner students score in the bottom 21st percentile statewide, a consistent trend suggesting this population needs more support. Overall, Crestwood positions itself as a cost-effective, resilient school that rivals top performers like Dearborn High School (57th percentile) while offering a supportive path to graduation for a diverse student body.
