Summary

Crestwood Intermediate is a public elementary school serving grades 3-5 in Chesapeake, Virginia, with 692 students. It is part of the Chesapeake City Public Schools district, which is ranked 31 out of 129 school districts in Virginia and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Crestwood Intermediate generally performs better than the district and state on standardized tests, with higher proficiency rates in mathematics, English reading, and Virginia Studies. The school has shown strong performance for certain student subgroups, ranking 49th out of 249 Virginia elementary schools for Asian students, 284th out of 579 for African American students, and 60th out of 326 for English Language Learner students. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 12.0% to 19.3% in recent years, is an area of concern that the school may need to address.

When compared to other nearby elementary schools in the Chesapeake City Public Schools district, Crestwood Intermediate generally performs better than George W. Carver Intermediate but lags behind the higher-performing Cedar Road Elementary. This suggests there may be opportunities for Crestwood Intermediate to learn from the practices and strategies of the top-performing schools in the district. Additionally, the school's per-student spending has fluctuated over the years, and it may be worth investigating how the school's resource allocation and spending patterns compare to other schools in the district and state.

Although my child had a very caring teacher who fostered a sense of unity with his peers last school year, the teacher and children this school year more than made up for the positive experience of last year! The teacher was immature, condescending, and just plain rude! She talked disparagingly about my child to me and condoned the bad behaviors of the children in her class! The children were bullies and were unwarrantedly negative towards my child marginalizing him no doubt feeding off the tone the teacher set for her class this school year! Topics were discussed in class that shouldn't have been that further caused division between classmates! The principal in turn condoned the teacher's bad behavior by policing me during what was supposed to be a parent teacher meeting! You as a parent will have no say in anything at this school and you will have no opportunities to be involved unless you are lucky enough to get the one or two teachers who are an anomaly at this school! Teacher and administrator alike were defensive and offensive when things were brought up to them that suggested they did not handle anything in a right manner for your family! Many warned me about this school but until I saw the problems first hand I didn't believe them! Friends are moving out in droves and I will indeed be right on their heals! There are many better options in near proximity to this school! Close Quote

I appreciate the supportive teachers and staff maintaining a student centered environment for my son. I have lived in 3 other states and I believe that the love for the students found at this school is evident as soon as you walk through the doors. The secretaries in the office treat the students like their own. I will miss them greatly when we move. The principal is an inspirational leader and a model of excellence in professionalism. We had several things to happen within one year to our family and we received nothing but support from Ms. Carney. We will miss her and her team. The teachers maintain academic rigor in the general education classes that uphold the integrity of the mandate to create future productive citizens in society. I believe that my child will keep the strategies for creativity and critical thinking for the rest of his life. Thanks CWI! Close Quote
