GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. 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.

My experience at Kennedale High School has been satisfactory. You see Kennedale has a problem with teachers and the amount of work they apply over the week. Some teachers seem to pride themselves on the work they give out. When students are trying to pass there classes and do extracurricular activities. it limits what students can do.
