Welcome, Class of 2025 and Families!
We are happy to partner with you to make Senior Year special! The list below is provided as a courtesy by the PTSO; payments are not collected by PTSO nor does the PTSO profit from sales (unless noted).
Step 1: Pay Class Dues
Dues are required to be paid in order to be eiligible for a parking pass, prom tickets, and graduation tickets. Students who have not paid their Class Dues will not be able to purchase prom tickets. These dues are set by the Class Council and collected online by Crofton High School (not the PTSO) and used to fund prom, graduation, cookout after graduation practice, & more. Please contact Assistant Principal Ms. Detman or Class Sponsor Ms. Hamilton with questions. Thank you!
After Prom Party Planning Meeting Sundays, 7 pm
Parents, join us to plan a great After Prom at Sky Zone Gambrills for our seniors. We are meeting every Sunday night until the event. Students are welcome to help in the planning too!
Join us every Sunday at 7 pm on Google Meet.

Important Parking Information
Parents - We need your support by not allowing your child to drive to school if they do not have a current 2025 Spring Parking permit on their car.
- Seniors without a current Spring Parking Pass may not park on school grounds.
- Juniors are not allowed to park on school grounds at all.
- Students without a pass may not park at Crofton High School, Crofton Middle School, Linthicum Walks or Crofton Park. Some of these areas can tow unauthorized cars at the owner’s expense.
- We do not want to tow cars or have students facing other consequences for not following the parking guidelines.
- There are not enough spaces during 1st and 2nd period for the current Seniors who expressed interest in having a pass for 2nd semester.
- We are monitoring the lot to add permits if we can. We have already issued 232 permits for 210 spaces available for students. We have 28 students on the waitlist and several who had passes the 1st semester that did not reapply.
Please help us keep the parking lots safe and not overcrowded. If you have specific questions, please reach out to Ms. Johnston by emails or at 410-451-5300.
