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.

Kent county high school is a good school for a small time but also lacks education needs/purposes. My last 4 years were a bit complicated and struggled hard , our sports teams aren't really good mostly because we never get the practice that we need.

I think my experience so far in kent county high has been terrible the kids are so rude and the staff don't do anything about it they let it continue until the kids start fighting. But the school isn't all that bad there are some really nice students and staff

I really liked the teachers. I also liked how the school offers career-pathway classes, where you can graduate with knowledge in a profession or even in some of the pathways a certificate in the field. i wish the school had more money funded for it to get updated textbooks and roof tiles. The cafeteria food could of been better, with more fresh foods and color on the plates.
The school offers STEM academy, Dual enrollment & Career Pathways. It’s a great school, you just have to do a bit of research for the programs offered.
My daughter is a graduate of KCHS and in medical school. We are pleased with her experience and she felt prepared for both undergraduate and graduate level classes. This school doesn't get the credit it deserves. We have great kids at KCHS.
My school... Kent County High School. This school is the epidemy of social injustice, the grades are unfair, they do not grade on subject rather behavior, and they care about making a student pass to be on a high school sports team more than they try to help the student trying to go to Harvard.
