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.

Best parts of my experience being at John C. Kimball High is how I was able to make good memories with friends and being able to reach out to my counselor whenever I needed help applying for colleges. The worst experiences I've had at Kimball was how often the fights used to be when I was a freshman, but now that issue's heavily resolved, but sometimes they still happen. It's not threatening to the safety of the students, but incidents still happen in which others don't feel necessarily safe, so I'd like to see some change in that.

My experience at this school wasn't necessarily bad but it is not the greatest experience. The school has a lot of drug problems and fights. The teachers are not very good at provided children with the necessary help that they need. The administrators are very good though and if you have a concern with something they will always make sure to do something about it.

John C Kimball is a very fun school. However, in recent years there has been many school fights and false fire alarms, likely due to smoking or vaping in the bathrooms.
