Summary

Crestwood Elementary School is a public Pre-K through 5th grade school serving 386 students in Covington, WA, and is part of the Kent School District.

Within its own district, Crestwood is a strong performer, ranking second-highest among its peers and significantly outperforming the district average in all subjects, especially math. The school shows notable effectiveness in supporting students from lower-income backgrounds and operates with a favorable student-teacher ratio. While its per-student spending is above average for some nearby schools like Grass Lake Elementary School, its higher academic results compared to schools with similar or greater economic need, such as Jenkins Creek Elementary School, suggest resources are being used effectively.

The most important context for parents is the pronounced performance gap between districts. While Crestwood is a high-achieving school within the Kent district, it is outperformed by schools in the neighboring, highly-ranked Tahoma School District, such as Cedar River Elementary. This indicates that broader district-level factors play a major role. Crestwood's year-to-year rankings can fluctuate, but it remains a stable, above-average choice that delivers solid academic results, particularly in mathematics, within its local context.
