Your Voice. Our Schools. A Stronger Crestwood.
When we give students meaningful opportunities to work together, we unlock the kind of learning that sticks. Kimberly Kocoloski, a teacher at Crestwood High School, reminds us that student-centered learning isn't just a strategy — it's where the magic happens. Her commitment to creating spaces where students can collaborate, compete, and grow together reflects the heart of what we do every day.
When Jeffrey Wynn's marketing students tackled a real-world promotional strategy challenge, they didn't just meet expectations—they exceeded them with creativity and originality that demonstrated genuine mastery. Jeffrey, a teacher at Crestwood High School, reminds us that when we connect classroom learning to authentic work, students show us capabilities we might never otherwise see. This is the kind of teaching that puts student innovation at the center and prepares learners for meaningful futures.

When Alison Tasich steps back and lets students teach each other through hands-on exploration, breakthrough moments happen. Her approach to lab design at Crestwood High School shows what's possible when educators trust the learning process and create space for genuine discovery. This is the kind of thoughtful teaching that makes our district stronger.
Reminder, Crestwood families! There will be NO SCHOOL on Monday, October 12th, due to Staff Professional Development. We look forward to welcoming our students back on Tuesday, October 13th. Enjoy the long weekend!

When students are given the chance to see themselves in a text, they rise to meet even the most demanding material. Kristi Smith, one of our talented teachers at Crestwood High School, watched this unfold firsthand when her 11th graders connected their own experiences of place with Thoreau's Walden. Her work reminds us that deep reading and self-reflection aren't separate goals, and that classic literature becomes most powerful when students can see themselves within it.
