Community Reviews
Horrible experience my teaching was horrible, and the students felt very unsupportive. Most of the students said that they felt uncomfortable and we lost students. I’m very disappointed in the school and I do not recommend it for any other people who are looking for a good school for their children.
Posted by a parent on 11/20/2025This school only cares about take advantage of the rich population that surrounds it. They don’t care about the students.
Posted by a parent on 9/17/2025This school is very rubbish, i sent my daughter for her whole middle school and all they did work work work work work work work. I didn’t think much about it at first because that’s what you do at a school. But I realized something was wrong after my daughter couldn’t do anything. Homework homework.
Posted by a parent on 5/10/2025I would say overall, Kinard is worth attending. Many opportunities for advancing in math and extra classes for more skills. 8th graders can walk out with Algebra 2 finished. Behavior management could be a lot better; 'bad' students don't receive adequate punishment. The music classes are nice, but I
Posted by a student on 8/24/2024Exceptional school with rigorous courses for those who want to challenge themselves. Many advanced courses and a music program that is one of the best in the state if not the country. If you have a serious student this is the school for you.

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe in classroom experience goes based on each teacher. My kids have had horrible educator's and amazing one. There is no communication, or transparency. They promote bullying behaviors - my children were called stupid in front of me by staff. 22 incidents with one student and my oldest before the school intervened. No discipline for racial and homophobic comments. My kids have been physically assaulted multiple times. I have gone through the board of directors, even to the schools attorney. Only made them target my children. They don't teach accountability for staff or students and use favoritism frequently. No one answers the phone ever. And they choose which students the policy's are enforced with and which not to. Strongly do NOT recommend!Parent Review7mo ago - Kruse Elementary School
