The school is part of the Johnson County R-VII district, which is ranked 122 out of 367 districts in Missouri and is rated 3 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Crest Ridge Elementary has faced some challenges, including inconsistent performance over the years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 229 out of 901 Missouri elementary schools (rated 4 stars) in 2020-2021 to 915 out of 1045 (rated 1 star) in 2017-2018. The school has performed relatively better for its low socioeconomic status (SES) students, but its performance for its white student population is significantly lower, ranking 536 out of 666 Missouri elementary schools (rated 1 star) in 2024-2025. Additionally, the school has had high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 11.3% to 19.5% over the past few years, which is notably higher than the nearby Knob Noster R-VIII and Warrensburg R-VI schools.

In comparison to nearby schools, Knob Noster Elementary and Whiteman A.F.B. Elementary consistently outperform Crest Ridge Elementary in terms of statewide rankings, test scores, and student-teacher ratios. However, Crest Ridge Elementary performs better than some of the smaller, more rural elementary schools in the surrounding area, such as Leeton Elementary and Kingsville Elementary. The school's performance also lags behind the higher-performing schools in the Warrensburg R-VI district, which includes schools like Maple Grove Elementary, Ridge View Elementary, Martin Warren Elementary, and Sterling Elementary.
