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.

Firstly, the school is decently big and has a track/football field, tennis court, and baseball field. The best part of the school is the culture and diversity of it with many different backgrounds in school. The worst part is that sometimes there can be fights, vaping in the bathrooms, and other not-so-great things, but overall the school is decent to go to and finish your high school learning.

The best high school i've ever been into Kentlake because it's is very effective, friendly, and a welcoming environment surrounded by kind and caring kentlake staffs and teachers. Some classes are more enjoyable than others from my personal experiences.

The school is just an average public school. Some teachers were really great while other teachers and faculty were alright or not the best. There were quite a few fights and gun threats among other things. The sports were a lot of fun but the teams weren't the greatest. Overall just an alright, average school.
