- It's and awsome school, before i graduated from 5th grade, they took us to NASA. We got to see the room where Neil Armstrong was contacted when in space and we got to see a space shuttle that they were going to send to Mars. It didn't cost our parents a thing. The teachers and students would sell candy and drinks after school and after or before lunch. If students had good grades they would go if no they would stay. Everyone got to go except one kid. We also had a recycling contest. The kids that recycled the most got to go to the zoo adn feed the giraffes and gazeles. Crestview has won first place in almost every recycling contest. So I guess you can say the school is enviornmently friendly.
The year before we got to got to the capital of Texas. We saw paintings and learned the history of Texas.
By 5th grade they will start having "the talk" with your kids. if you give permission. Girls will be in one class, boys in another.
The best 4/5 the grade teacher i would recomend would be Mrs. Gillenwater. Best 2grade teacher is Mrs Littlewood who is also a ESL teacher.
Mrs Gillenwater is a math teacher and head of after school. Her class wins every contest there is. wheni was there, we won tickets to watch the Baylor University Basketball game. The class went together and Baylor won.
Crestview is great for kids and i hope that your kids will attend.
