Crestview High School

Summary:

Crestview High School is a public high school serving 2,315 students in grades 9-12 in Crestview, Florida, which is part of the Okaloosa School District. The school has a diverse student population, with 61.38% White, 15.98% African American, and 8.64% Hispanic students.

Crestview High School stands out for its consistently high four-year graduation rates, ranging from 94.7% to 99.3% over the past five years, significantly higher than the state and district averages. However, the school has faced challenges with chronic absenteeism, with rates ranging from 16.6% to 35.1% over the same period, higher than the state and district averages. While the school's test scores are generally lower than the Okaloosa district and Florida state averages, it has shown strength in specific areas, such as proficiency rates in EOC/US History and EOC/Biology 1 exceeding the state and district averages.

Compared to nearby high-performing schools like Niceville Senior High School and Collegiate High School at Northwest Florida State College, Crestview High School's performance is generally lower, with lower test scores, graduation rates, and higher chronic absenteeism. However, the school's diverse student population and relatively high percentage of free and reduced-lunch recipients, ranging from 37.59% to 43.62% over the past three years, are notable factors to consider.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
