I've enjoyed karns high school, however the preparation for college is lacking and discipline is simply inexistent.
8/5/2023
The teachers are great, so are principals. The worst thing is the drugs and baking going on in the school, in the bathrooms. The bathrooms are not monitored well and are in horrible shape or stay locked.

Karns is a good place to learn. Teachers were very into helping me graduate. We didn't have many lockdowns and the administration always put our safety first. I loved making friendships that will hopefully last l after high school. I hope that Karns get get updated a little bit more and the food doesn't taste like cardboard.

In my experience there are some staff and administrators that are great and teachers as well but overall you couldn’t pay me to send my kid back, his sibling will either be transferred or I will pay for private school. I know high school is hard on all kids but this place was a nightmare for our fam...

As a former student and parent of students. I feel Karns has went down hill at a rapid rate. Located in an ideal area for commuting one would think that the community would thrive however that is not the case. Karns has never had a tight knit community feel due to socio economic status but with the...
