Education
Kennett has several departments, including English, Mathematics, Foreign Languages, Science, and Arts. The school also has an outstanding Career-Tech department, which includes several shops and classrooms fitted with updated technology. These rooms are often looked at as a key point of the new school building. The department includes a woodshop, a metal shop, an auto shop, a drafting and architecture room and a kitchen where culinary students are able to serve food to the public in the "Mineral Springs Cafe". The school has been working to improve its SAT scores and is now ahead of several national averages for testing standards, and has also lowered the dropout rate since 2007-2008, the first year in the new building.
