Why Crestwood?

“I am a grade-ten student that just switched to Crestwood this year. From the minute I started, I have never met such great staff and students that are so welcoming. This year has been amazing already, and I love to come to school each day. Thank you for making learning so much fun!

—S. Mincer”

Your child’s future is no small matter, and choosing the right school for him or her is a family decision. No one else can tell you what to do.

What we can do is give you all the information and interaction you require to make an informed decision about Crestwood.

Please visit us. Come to our Open Houses. Meet our faculty and administration and see for yourself how they relate to students and how students relate to them. Explore our facilities. Experience our community.

Please send us your questions. Feel free to call or email any member of our faculty and staff. Their contact information is posted right on this website. We’re also happy to arrange for you to meet some of the parents whose children already attend Crestwood.
