The principal, teachers, and staf...

Kenwood is a fantastic neighborhood community school. Not sure why greatschools has it rated so low. Most families that attend Kenwood live in the area, which is why it isn't as diverse as some other Minneapolis schools. I'd still say there's a good mix of students of all backgrounds.
