Going to Kenyon-Wanamingo Senior High School was quite a trip. There's only about seventy some people that are in your class and you know everyone pretty well. This is a very close knit school with others and everyone knows everyone. There's a lot of community support in whatever the school does and achieves with the students. The teachers are involved on a professional and personal level. They are concerned about moving you forward and preparing you. K-W has a lot of activities to keep students active and busy and it provides skills we can use for the rest of our lives. I enjoy our music program the most and I am very proud to be a part of it. If I could change anything about K-W it would be two things. I would get a better food service and have more life lessons instead of teaching out of a textbook all of the time.

Overall the teachers at Kenyon Wanamingo are great. There are some that show favoritism towards specific groups of people, particularly the teachers who are also coaches for sports. The teachers are all knowledgeable and can be awesome, it really just depends on what kind of students are in the class with you if you actually learn 100% of the time.

It doesn't have many choices and when you get the food its either cold or over done. It is poorly cooked and could use a lot of work to improve it
