I absolutely love Kinston High School. I am a senior now and have attended Kinston School since Kindergarten. I have made so many wonderful memories there with the most caring people. I have always felt safe and welcome.

Kinston is overall a great school. I like the fact that it is a small town school and that everyone knows everyone. One thing that I would like to see changed is the rigor of the academics. I think the honors courses should be more challenging to prepare students for college.

I would not recommend this school for anyone that cares for their child because the bully's here run the school and the teachers and principal will not do anything about it
