Weve had two children attend Crofton for all four years of high school and both had wonderful experiences with Crofton High. Their teachers have been engaged, supportive and available. Wide range of extracurricular opportunities. Academically rigorous with many college level courses available taught by subject matter experts. Theatre and music programs are amazing. Athletic facilities are top notch, and the school setting is gorgeous. Could not ask for more.

This school does nothing about racism and discrimination. Whether it's from other students or teachers you can report it until you're blue in the face and nothing will be done. You could have physical proof of the racism and discrimination and still nothing will be done. Bullying is pushed under the rug rather than it being stopped dead in its tracks, and teachers aren't nice. The only thing I applaud about this school is the amazing guidance counselors we have, and the clubs that are available that try to be inclusive. If you are a black or hispanic student coming to this school, please check out the Crofton high school instagram page, look at the followers and see how many are posted up in "Make America Great Again" hats. Or better yet ask a current student of color how many racist experiences they have had in this school and how many times something has actually been done to fix it.

Weve loved Crofton High School so far! Our son really enjoys going and hes always joked that his favorite subject is recess so this is a big change. The teachers are very engaged in his learning. Highly recommend.
