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.

My best experience in Kentridge are the teachers and the peers I've met. I've recently gotten a huge leadership role that I never thought I'd be able to achieve without my advisor. My worse experience is the food and overall environment unfortunately. Some people aren't always as kind as others

I graduated from Kentridge in 2018 and both of my younger sisters attended KR as well- while sports and activities made it a positive experience I do think that KR can improve in its academics as well as college prep

I have attended for a total of 3 years, with next year being my last year as a student here. There have for sure been plenty up and downs during my time here. from fights to awards. I belive that kentridge CAN be a great school but I dont think it is well rounded enough. One month you will see the teachers being people you can freely talk to, to the next month where you have to watch what you say. Overall my time here was really decent but if asked if I would do it again is the bigger question.

Look at the OSPI Report Card. If you want your student to go to school to learn academics or graduate, KR is the place to be.

Hi, I am currently a junior at KR and I have to say it is a very good school. This school has challenging classes, activities, and it also offers very fun opportunities for the students to find friends. There might be some drug problems but it is very minor (at least to me because I was not involved...
