Summary

Crestwood High is a public high school located in Sumter, South Carolina, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 1,117 students. The school is part of the Sumter 01 school district, which is ranked 67 out of 75 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Crestwood High's academic performance, as measured by end-of-course (EOCEP) test scores, is generally lower than the state and district averages, particularly in Algebra 1/Mathematics for the Technologies 2, English 1, and U.S. History and the Constitution. However, the school performs better on the English 2 EOCEP test. Crestwood High's four-year graduation rate has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 77.1% to 89.9%, and the school has experienced high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 22.5% to 38.4% in recent years.

Compared to nearby schools, Crestwood High's academic performance is generally lower than Lakewood High and Sumter High School, which are also part of the Sumter 01 district. However, Crestwood High outperforms the more distant Lee Central High, which is part of the Lee 01 district. The school's 100% free and reduced-price lunch rate indicates a high level of economic disadvantage among its student population, which likely contributes to its lower academic performance and higher rates of chronic absenteeism.
