Overall Cromwell high is a pretty fun place to be at. The best experiences are the sports that we have here as I play football and tennis and I love every bit of it as our student section is definitely one of the best of the state adding to the overall atmosphere of the game. The worst would definitely be rarely having racism throughout the school or any other racial activity that ultimately doesn't get handled the way it should. As long as we see this change along with the lunch it will add to that amazing school experience.

Cromwell High School is a good high school. There are many opportunities to get involved in school activities based on your interests. The teachers are great and are very understanding. The guidance office is always available and the counselors are amazing. The administrators are good and are involved in activities as well. The sports teams are really good and have won quite a bit of championships. Overall I would say that I had a great experience at Cromwell High School.
