The campus is on Dares Beach Road and includes the main school building, a gym for basketball games, a football stadium, a baseball field, tennis courts, a soccer field, a lacrosse and field hockey field, and a large auditorium used for school concerts and plays. Additionally, it also includes the Arthur Storer Planetarium, named for the Calvert County resident and the original namesake of Halley's Comet.

Before moving to its current campus in 1963, Calvert High School used to be along Maryland Route 2/Maryland Route 4. The building once served as a building for Calvert Middle School, a public middle school that serves as a feeder school of Calvert High.

In 1965, desegregation of the Calvert County Public Schools led to Brooks High School &mdash; the county's then all-black high school &mdash; being merged with Calvert High.
