Athletics
Kennett's athletics program has won many titles and awards since the school was created. As a member of the NHIAA, the school competes against many schools from across the state, including Berlin High School, Monadnock Regional High School, Trinity High School, and their rival Kingswood Regional High School in Wolfeboro. In recent years, the winter season teams have been particularly successful. The ice hockey team won division state championships in 2008-09, 2011-2012, 2011–12 and finished runners up in 2010-11. The ski team has also been successful, winning Boys, Girls, Combined and Jumping titles in recent years (New Hampshire is the only state with high school ski jumping competition). The girls basketball team won the state championship in 2009-10. In 2010-11, the field hockey team won their state championship. The football team has been consistently qualifying for playoff games in recent years, and is known for ending the Plymouth Regional High School football team's national record streak of 57 wins in 2010. The football team plays its home games on Friday nights at Gary Millen Stadium, named after a late teacher and football coach at the school. The stadium also houses the Livingston Oval, named for the current track and cross country coach, Bernie Livingston, for track events and sometimes serves as a soccer field during the fall season. The school's tennis, cross country and track teams have also won titles in the past. The baseball and softball teams have also done well during recent years. The combined titles of the ski teams total more than all of the other sports at the school combined.
Since the new school was built, a coed mountain biking team and both boy's and girl's lacrosse teams have been adopted to the program.
