When I attended Kennard-Dale High School, I thought that the learning experience was challenging but fun and easy to adapt to. Though, now that I am in college, I find that the education provided was not challenging enough to really feel like it was preparing me for a higher education.

The school ain't great I will admit. A casual STD and bathroom with a dropped dookie in the urinal, walk into any bathroom in between periods and it's a wall of smoke, classes are mediocre (A few for amazing teachers). The school stinks half because of the bad hygiene of students and the location being close to cow sh-t. Lunch lady's are nice but the food is second to old Del Taco hot dogs. Dress code is fine, water fountains got so much metal seems like iron man's urine. Overall 3/10 could be much better

different people have different experiences. Not a very diverse school. Music is supported by the administration, but some of teachers are quitting due to the administration of the school district and the under representation of the teachers within the school. But there are teachers that make it fun and provide a good learning experience.

My wife and I couldn’t be more happier with the improvements and curriculum. Communication has never been an issue and our children seem to really strive for goals more than they ever have before.

I went on to graduate from Penn State and work at a fortune 500 company. I believe you get what you put into it, I saw kids who did not care about school and s...

I believe Kennard-Dale HS is working hard to improve. I wouldn't be surprised if it receives 8 out of 10 next year.

The administration at this school is incompetent. Policies are not enforced, bullying runs rampant. Don't send your children to this school!! This is the worst school I have ever seen.
