Crescent Middle School had the clearest subject-specific weakness: math proficiency was 9%, 16 points below the state and the other schools’ average. But it led in science at 40%, 10 points above the state. Crescent Elementary School matched the state in all-grades math, though grade 3 math was 13% versus 33% statewide and grade 5 was 29% versus 28%.
Results improved overall, especially at the high school, but not uniformly. The average across schools and three subjects rose from 19% in 2024–2025, about 9 points below the state, to 27% in 2025–2026, matching the state; Crescent High School’s average gap across those subjects shifted from 16 points below to 5 points above the state, despite a 5-point drop in U.S. History. SchoolDigger ranks the high school at the 87th percentile, versus the 37th percentile for both other schools. For context, in 2024–2025, free/reduced lunch eligible students made up 58% at the elementary school, 44% at the high school, and 39% at the middle school; the student-teacher ratios were 17.9, 18.6, and 22, respectively. These figures describe different school contexts, not causes of test results.
