Summary

Crestview Elementary is a PK-5 school in Greer, SC, serving 683 students within the Greenville 01 district, which ranks in the 85th percentile statewide.

Crestview currently holds a middle-tier state ranking (57th percentile, 3 stars), a notable step back from its 4-star performance in 2022-2023. The school serves a predominantly low-income population, with 72% of students receiving free or reduced lunch. While per-student spending has risen to $12,568—higher than several nearby top performers like Woodland Elementary ($10,891) and Brushy Creek Elementary ($11,477)—achievement lags significantly behind those schools, which rank in the 90th and 88th percentiles respectively. The most pressing academic concern is a dramatic "5th grade math cliff": proficiency plunged to 40.4% in 2025-2026, a 15-point drop from 4th grade and 22 points below the district average. This is a sharp reversal from the prior year when 5th grade math was a strength at 64.5%. Encouragingly, 3rd grade ELA has improved steadily (46% → 63% → 65.6%), and 4th grade math remains above state averages.

Chronic absenteeism is a major challenge, climbing to 24.9%—more than double the rate at higher-performing nearby schools like Buena Vista Elementary (10.9%) and Skyland Elementary (11.4%). This trend likely underlies much of the recent academic decline. Crestview's closest neighbor, Chandler Creek Elementary, faces nearly identical challenges (50th percentile, 20.2% absenteeism), suggesting community-wide factors. On a positive note, the school has historically served African American students exceptionally well (83rd percentile for two consecutive years) and has shown it can achieve strong outcomes for low-income students. The recent broad-based decline across all subgroups, however, signals systemic challenges that will require focused attention on attendance and upper-grade math support.
