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.

Kimberly High School has a really strong academic and athletic department. The AP classes are challenging, have a lot of variety of classes that you can take depending on what you're interested in. Counselors actually help you to find solutions to your problems, they know you, and care about your future; for example, they helped me to negotiate scholarships with the administration of other colleges so I can have more opportunities to choose where I want to go. They have so many resources to help you to be successful, like a writing center, tutoring, ACT practice sessions, computers, volunteering positions, connections with college recruitment around the state. Amazing athletic facilities, they care about you having a good lifestyle. I don't have bad experiences, I think the "worst" experience I had was having to withdraw a class, because the professor was not the best at helping her students, and was hard to keep up with.

Kimberly High School has been very good for my preparation for going to college. I have used a variety of resources in my last year to prepare any documents or plans in order to set myself up for success. The staff does a good job of creating a balance between fun and learning. Overall, Kimberly has been exceptionally well in the preparation of students. I plan to have my children attend Kimberly High.

My overall High School experience has not been horrible, but I feel they could have prepared us better and in more of an advance; give us the full understanding of what we have access to in both Junior High and our First year as Freshman.

Going into my senior year, I have LOVED Kimberly High School. Despite some groups of people I don't like, I surround myself with good friends and took classes I enjoy and I wouldn't have gone to any other school. Kimberly HS offers a LOT of club/organizations to join, classes to take, and sporting e...

Sports areway overrated. If you are "in" good with coaches can do or say anything. Teachers try to just get by with very little ACTUAL teaching! Not very diverse. Issues with bullying and cultural issues. Much better choices in the Appleton area!

Kimberly High School is pretty much a joke. You can sleep your way through every class and still get a 3.8 GPA. Of course that 3.8 GPA doesn't mean much when you get a 22 on your ACT. When you look at the average ACT scores (KHS is below average for the Fox Valley) you can see that grade inflation i...
