I had the worse experience at KRHS. i just graduated and this school year was so hard. I only loved going to unified class snd that was it. This school is NOT diverse and never will be which means racism will occur to you if you are not white. The teachers and administrators do not care either is racism has happened to you and will try to sweep it under the rug. The front desk lady are RUDEEEEE. Everyone in the that school is bitter except for Ms Hebler love her down. Teacher dont know how to handle there students or discipline them, for example when freshmen we vandalizing the restrooms everyone got in trouble, talking about 1 at a time like ???? Do not go hear if you wanna have a good mental headspace!

My time at Kettle Run High School was truly enjoyable and fulfilling. The school organized a variety of events and rallies throughout the year, which added excitement and energy to the daily routine. These gatherings not only fostered school spirit but also created an atmosphere where students could come together, celebrate achievements, and make lasting memories.
I also had the privilege of forming positive relationships with many of my teachers, who were not only knowledgeable but also genuinely invested in our growth and success. They created a supportive learning environment that encouraged open dialogue and collaboration, making it easier to engage with the material and ask questions. Overall, Kettle Run High School provided a wonderful blend of academic rigor and community spirit, making my high school experience both entertaining and enriching.

Not a good school. My son was targeted and bullied for two weeks and they never did anything about it. Eventually they suspended my son for feigning a punch at this other kid who was abusing and bullying him. The assistant principal called my son and grilled him 3 times like the CIA would, without the presence of a counselor. Then the second assistant principal called me to report he had been suspended and I could here her on the phone yelling at my son. My son is autistic and becomes withdrawn when targeted. He trusted the adults here to look out for him. Sadly, they ended up labeling him a liar and treated him like a common criminal. How would a scared child be able to defend himself when the people in authority are yelling at him. We have friends who tell us that other kids here were let off with a warning even when they actually punched other kids. We have now withdrawn our child from the school.

I was a Student at this school and I have autism they did not help me but instead punished me for it. Some Teachers would target me make me stand in front of the class during the lessons so i could pay attention. They have no support for invisible disabilitys and make us feel like we can never achieve anything in life setting us up for failure. I never got to graduate because I was too scared to come to school anymore. It is not a safe place for special education.

As a recent grad I went to 3 different high schools and this was about the most unpleasant. The kids are very reluctant to acknowledge anyone they havent known since they were small, the school is mostly well 92% non ethnic being mixed and stepping into this school sure was uncomfortable, the teachers are extremely unprofessional and play too much into favoritism and example would be mostly concerning the sports and art departments. Racist remarks are obviously heard and NOT DEALT with I think the amount of homework is a bit extreme (You get it every single day even on weekends no matter what grade you are in) and the gym classes are ROUGH my senior gym class consisted of me and another girl and 20 other boys and there was a game created that was like dodgeball but with hard inflated volleyballs being pegged at you resulting in at least one person being sent to the school nurse (who was also very unpleasant and unprofessional) and this game was played everyday for almost a whole month despite my moms concerns after my own multiple visits to the nurse. This school was biased, had lazy teaching methods, unprofessional and my overall experience was uncomfortable. The counseling team was the only great thing about this school they were always available and ready to listen to what you have to say theyd remember and they really cared about you and what you had to say.
