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.

Kentridge is a good High school. Although I do wish that some teachers should put more effort into teaching students instead of having students learn by themselves.

It's definitely improved over the time I've gone through high school. The environment and culture has gotten stronger, and the community has grown so much in school activities. The classes are usually great as you get further on in the year, and you form really great bonds with your classmates. Our school has a lot of spirit weeks that students participate in, and the pep assemblies are astronomically loud.

I'm heavily involved with music, specifically choir. Throughout my high school years, music has been taken a lot more seriously and appreciated. I also was heavily involved with my school GSA, leading to the addition of gender neutral bathrooms and LGBTQ culture throughout campus. Something I'd like to see change is more attention to the arts as they still are often forgotten

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...
