I personally don't like Craigmont because I was used to my previous school at Hamilton,but all of the reviews that are saying that craigmont is a bad school they are lying.Craigmont supports diversity on various levels, this is my first year at Craigmont and they make sure they are on all students 100% of the time. It is a good school for a child of any color to attend

This school is terrible. Kids set the garbage cans on fire, pull the fire alarm, have riots, steal from staff, have fights every day. If your child has a little potential don't bring them there. It's horribly set up the teachers smoke with the students. And their are gangs everywhere

Craigmont High school is a very excellent school. The community thinks that it is a bad school because they only hear about the bad things that happen. There are many bad things that happen at other schools as well. Craigmont high school has a plethora of positive things going on. They have an excellent optional program and much more. If the community takes a chance to stop looking at the bad things that occur here and look at the positive things they will love it. I recommend students with positive behavior and work ethics to come and enjoy Craigmont High School.

Don't send your child this school if you are white because they will be very uncomfortable.
