Joseph A. Craig High School is a public secondary school located in the city of Janesville, Wisconsin. Constructed in 1954 as Janesville High School, it was renamed Craig High School in 1967, when George S. Parker High School was built on the west side of the city. Craig currently has a population of approximately 1,800 students.

Located on the east side of Janesville, it is named after Joseph A. Craig, who was instrumental in attracting the General Motors Janesville Assembly plant to the city.
