My time at Simon kenton high School has been good so far, I started halfway through my freshman year. The teachers welcomed me very well and it was a welcoming experience Ever since then I have really liked the school. I would like to see a change in some of the classroom rules, some classes were very strict and it was hard to get your work done in those classes.

I think Simon Kenton is a great school. I enjoy being part of the baseball program. The teachers and administrators are helpful and genuinely care.

I have enjoyed my high school experience so far. I wish the school had more college career courses for the field I am interested in. Also that teachers even though they know not all students learn the same not just focus on one way of teaching to ensure all students learn to their best of their ability for success

History teachers unfortunately love dad jokes :/ Overall pretty good experience, classes are pretty easy...

It was awful. I was bullied all through out my experience here and none of the administration would help me with any of it. They wouldn't even listen to my teachers who saw it happening.
