Dr. Michael M. Krop Senior High School is a secondary school located at 1411 County Line Road in the Ives Estates area of Unincorporated north Miami-Dade County (Miami address), Florida, USA. However, it serves the city of Aventura, northern fringes of North Miami Beach, and the unincorporated areas around the school such as Ives Estates and Ojus; its principal is Dawn Baglos. The school is located on the Miami-Dade side of the Miami-Dade-Broward County line and it is the northernmost high school in the district.
Krop is considered to be a magnet school because it has a "Students Training in the Arts Repertory (STAR)" program. This magnet program is a visual and performing arts program that is open to students in the greater Miami area. Due to the recession of 2008 and ongoing financial issues, the STAR program has had severe cuts in its funding.
The school's athletic rival is Alonzo and Tracy Mourning Senior High Biscayne Bay Campus.
