Crescent View West Public Charter scores 30 of 100 on SchoolScope's Scope Score — the 23rd percentile of 2,160 California high schools (CDE CAASPP 2025).

Most rating sites would stop at “21% proficient” and call it done. Crescent View West Public Charter deserves a closer read. The school sits in Fresno, where four in five students qualify for free or reduced lunch — and reading the numbers without that context misreads the school.

The headline number: 0.1% suspension rate — versus 3.6% statewide.

As a charter, Crescent View West Public Charter enrolls by application, not address — the score reads the same, the enrollment path doesn't.
