GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The new rules implemented by this school are very unjust and not fair to the students. This school is the only one in the area that is adding this rule, ex. the no backpack in class rule and no cellphones besides passing time, which only gives the students more incentive to switch schools. The teachers in this school are also extremely disappointing and hardly teach anything that is of use.

I feel that my school did a great job of preparing me for college. I made so many life long friends there, as well as met so many great teachers and staff. If anyone is looking for a great high school, I would definitely recommend Kearsley. As someone who went to Richfield Public School Academy prior to moving into the Kearsley school district, I had very low hopes going in. However, it was a great experience, and I am forever glad I was able to attend Kearsley High School.

My experiences at kearsley where, well crazy. My years at kearsley were during a pandemic. But we worked through it. We stuck together and made very easy. We were a family, but when we came back from online it lost its family feel. I'm sure that it'll be back. Kearsley will be better
