Overall, Kemper County High is a great school. The teachers and faculty make you feel at home. They prepare you for college, and they also prepare you for the real world. If there was anything I could possibly change about Kemper County High, I would not change anything because everything is great the way that it already is.

It was alright, I wouldn't say it is the best school to go to. Kemper is kinda bad to me even though we not failing. The food there is so horrible sometimes it make some the students at our school sick. Kemper is really boring and we don't have a lot of access to things
