Kell High School

We transferred from out of state several months ago. Our son is in 9th grade and has been very happy at Kell. The staff in the guidance office went above and beyond to make this transition a smooth one. This is a great school! The school itself is beautiful and well kept. Highly recommend Kell!

Kell is a very nice school, however they don't really spend too much time keeping up the facilities - landscaping, track, etc. & extra materials that have been stacked up for years (cinder blocks etc) The county seems to 'pick on' this school more & make them an example for schedule changes a lot - Kell handles it very well although it is very frustrating for the students to have constant changes each year. Like any school there are those teachers that need to retire already, but most of the staff is wonderful - the math department could be better - with the exception of a couple of teachers - several don't know the curriculum & want the kids to teach themselves.

If I could rate Kell with no stars I definitely would. The administration lacks any kind of strength whatsoever and the kids get away with murder. My child comes home and tells me about the antics that go on and how some students are able to roam the halls and basically do nothing in class. Teachers are only rewarded if they 'know' higher up people. My child works hard and she gets upset that children who don't even do any work and back talk the teachers pass as well because of something called AYP??? If I were you, and I had the choice of where my child went to high school, Kell would definitely be on the bottom of the list! They also need a new principal, one who's younger and more in tune with today's youth!

I am about to be a junior. The staff is great, the teachers tend to be awesome, though there are slight issues for scheduling. Most importantly, though, also why I took a star off of my review, is the lack of consistency. I have never had the same schedule 2 years in a row. First it was a mixed block and traditional, then a mixed block and traditional with the traditional getting block days twice a week, now it is a block traditional, similar to college, with 8 classes all together every other day blocks. It is UTTERLY confusing. Otherwise, it's a pretty good school.

Kell is an excellent school that prepares students for college and has a super athletic program. My oldest is a sophomore at Georgia Tech and doing quite well, which is proof of Kell's ability to prepare students for college.

My daughter has really enjoyed attending high school at Kell H.S. She is a junior and will be graduating a semester early thanks to the teachers and guidance counselors. I've personally seen teachers go up and beyond to help a student (s) out! This is over all a great school!!

Wonderful school. Great teachers and staff who are kind. My daughter had an injury , the staff at Kell have done everything to make sure she can attend school, they even made sure she had extra books in every class until she recovers. Go Longhorns
