Summary

Crestwood Elementary School is a public elementary school in Las Vegas, Nevada, serving 559 students in grades PK-5. It is part of the Clark County School District, which is ranked 5 out of 12 in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. However, Crestwood Elementary has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past several years, dropping from 174 out of 341 Nevada elementary schools in 2017-2018 to 235 out of 379 in 2024-2025, with a 2-star rating.

Crestwood Elementary's performance is a concern, with consistently high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 26.6% to 31.3% in recent years, significantly higher than the state and district averages. Academically, the school's SBAC test scores are generally below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates in mathematics and reading were 34.8% and 38.5%, respectively, compared to the state averages of 35.4% and 45.6%. Interestingly, the school performs relatively well in certain student subgroups, such as English Language Learners and Low Socioeconomic Status students, where it ranks in the top half of Nevada elementary schools.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Hewetson Halle Elementary, Hollingsworth Howard Elementary, and Park John S Elementary, Crestwood Elementary's performance is generally lower, with higher test scores and lower chronic absenteeism rates. Additionally, the nearby charter schools, such as Eagle Charter Schools of Nevada and Strong Start Academy, outperform Crestwood Elementary in both academic achievement and student attendance, suggesting that the charter school model may be more effective in this area.
