Kentwood High School

Good spirit but lack of diversity. some of the students act ignorant/racist and i'm considering transferring. also the teachers need to improve their teaching. the material they present is not understandable and this is coming from a 3.9 GPA student.

We found Kentwood to be a great and enjoyable experience for our sons. One son took enough AP exams to enter the UW as a sophomore. For the most part the teachers are caring and very dedicated to their students. The music and drama departments are awesome as are the athletics. It is a well-rounded school which prepares students for the real world.

this school is great and it has a tight knit family community i love it so much.

Kentwood makes you feel like you belong no matter what! You fell like you have a family and its just a really great place to be...

I love this school!! it is so amazing. it has a kind atmoshphere where i felt extremely welcomed. The students really are friendly to eachother not to mention how amazing our teachers are. They are so great and really are making highschool amazing. The athletics at KW are impecable as well. The coaches are pretty hard core but in the end its so worth it. Being on KW dance is probably the most amazing thing i will ever do. Its great to be alive its great to be a conk!!!

Kentwood High School has an amazingly friendly atmosphere. The students are very welcoming and kind. The teachers are all top class especially in the AP and Honors divisions. Kentwood extracurriculars are among the best in the state with amazing sports teams and plenty of clubs to choose from. I am a student so I do not know the amount of parent involvement. I do know that I am blessed to be able to spend my high school years at Kentwood. I love this school with all my heart and I actually look forward to going. It is a great environment and you're lucky if you have the pleasure of attending.

Kentwood is probably the best school within KSD with possibly some competition with Kentridge. Located near Covington Library and has one of the cleanest tennis courts around. Teachers are incredibly well especially the AP and honors teachers. Plenty of great clubs and diversity. Only factor I would say is possibly the safety (expect this in every high school). The environment around is great.

Kentwood is an extraordinary school the sports programs are unmatched within the distrcit and the state. The teachers are very involved with assisting all youth regardless of anything. NO set backs at this school. Principal is awesome and safety is not an issue here the school is very much involved in student safety. this is a great school!

Kentwood is a great place to receive an education. The sports at Kentwood High School are one of the best. All the sports are extravagant and they CONQUEROR the competition. Quality of academic programs are high and there is a large variety to choose from. Overall Kentwood is a positive learning environment and one of the best schools in Washington State.

From a senior student Kentwood HS has exceeded my wildest expectations. Growing up in a world where every experience is commercialized on the television I was pleased to find that high school isn't as nasty as I feared. The teachers - they genuinely care and I was easily able to befriend them. Most even have a sense of humor. My favorite teacher of all is perhaps Mr. Harrison the Orchestra teacher. I've been in Orchestra for 4 years under him and our music program keeps getting better and better. A year ago we won a Grammy (at HS level) in conjuction with the choir and band. Sports - as Captain of this year's girl's swim team and an avid participant in judo I can say that sports are awesome. Parent involvement I know less about - but the administrative staff are helpful and can make it happen for you.

Great school. Highly educated and caring teachers. There's a wide number of clubs/sports to choose from. Parental involvement is always encouraged and recommended.

Kentwood High School offers a welcoming environment to students staff and parents alike. The staff is knowledeable driven and nuturing. Many of them consistently go above and beyond what is expected of them. The Kentwood PTA comprises a wonderful hard-working group of volunteers! They see to it that the kids and staff have many opportunities that would otherwise be missed. Kentwood has an excellent sports program and in fact the varsity boys basketball team just won the 4A State Championships! The gals in the front office especially Gina are friendly helpful and accommodating. The counseling office does a wonderful job especially Mark Owen and it offers a myriad of helpful information. The same goes for the career center. A wonderful driver's safety course is available and the elective courses as well as the technical programs are varied and interesting. My family is proud to be part of the Kentwood Community.

Kentwood is a great school for athletes and students who want to go to good colleges post-high school. However this school lacks of diversity. The teachers are great and do assign a lot of homework but they will always explain things clearly so homework should be a snap. Teachers at Kentwood are very kind and always willing to help. Overall Kentwood is a great school it just need more of a diverse atmosphere.
