Crest High has been great to me for the last four years, I'm sad to see it coming to an end but excited for my future. I feel like we lost so much time at school with Covid, however the staff was amazing and kept up on our toes working very hard to keep everyone on track. So proud of Everyone at Crest as well as myself for sticking to my goals during Covid and completing everything possible. Once a Charger always a Charger!
Crest High School will always be a special memory to me. I believe that I was some of the hardest years of my life, but they were also the years that I grew the most as a person, student, and friend. Crest has a blend of teachers and teaching styles. I did better with some than with others, but overall I would say it was a good experience. Some of my favorite classes were my history, English, and Latin classes. My Latin teacher may be my favorite teacher I've had in all my years of education. She really pushed me to be a better student and a well educated individual.
My experience at Crest High School has been mediocre. Overall, most teachers here lack the passion and effort needed to prepare students for college. We as students get treated as if we are still in sixth grade and it doesn't feel good. I did not enjoy my time here.
