The best part about King College Prep is that it prepares us for life after high school , no matter if it's college , trade, job or other the teachers here will help you get to where you need to be. I believe the worst part about KCP is the agenda and criteria. Although it is a college prep, the work could be a bit more challenging.

My overall experience at king is pretty good. I have learned a lot here and it has helped me become a more successful student. I just wish there were academics for students.

Deciding to attend king college prep was one of my most proud decisions. The 4 years I've spent there has more than prepared me for my life beyond high school.

Very good support for ADHD, very inclusive to everyone.

I have unfortunately transferred from this school as a rising junior. If you are the academic type then you would probably enjoy it here. This school lacks well rounded extracurricular activities, partially due to the physical size of the school and also the general indifference of the administratio...

The school has terrible relations with parents students teachers and students
