It was a good school just a lot of the kids and teachers there are annoying and some teachers just don't teach
8/19/2024
Here I find it a bit hard to find a community of others who are just as passionate about learning as I am. I want to see Kellis become a school in which people want to go to, not one they're excited to leave.

Kellis is a good school with supportive staff. I would like to see more opportunities for students to come together
