Crest is more than a school…

It’s more than a community, it’s a family. A family who gathers in a building that always feels warm and welcoming, even when nowhere else does. A safe place full of care, giving students the confidence and power to have a positive perspective on themselves and what they can accomplish. Crest itself and the experiences shared there have saved lives.

I would not be where I am today without Crest.

Crest means EVERYTHING. I would not be where I am today without it. Crest provides community, trust in the entire education system, and a place for students to go don’t have anywhere else. Losing Crest would be an unmitigated disaster for so many kids. Its positive impact for myself and others cannot be understated.

Save Crest. Crest saved me.

Crest saved my life. The teachers and adaptive learning styles kept me engaged. There is no release valve in highschool when the pressure is on and suicide is a very real issue. Crest provides a safe place for young adults to learn and grow at their pace. Save Crest. Crest saved me.
