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.

I've had a pretty good experience at Kennebunk High School so far. One thing to note is that our school definitely lacks community, although this may just be due to the effects that hybrid learning had on the students.
4.0 Senior
2/23/2024
Definitely a quality school. The diversity is nearly all Caucasian, but they are working to bring in foreign exchange students. With the addition to the new school building, there is also a new field for athletics. Overall a good experience, but at times lacks leadership both in the administration and staff to get the needed work done.

Beautiful school, great athletic, theater and music programs. Overall, teachers do a great job of communicating lessons and expectations via Google Classroom. There have been a couple teachers that weren't going the extra mile to ensure my student could be successful in their class, but overall, I am happy with both the safety measures and communication from the school.
