Fight Song
The school's fight song, "Onward Kennewick", is based upon the University of Wisconsin–Madison's fight song, (as well as the Wisconsin state song) "On, Wisconsin!", with the words 'Onward Kennewick' replacing 'On, Wisconsin', as well as minor changes in the lyrics, depending on whatever sport season it was. Otherwise, the song's lyrics are the same.
Onward Kennewick, onward Kennewick
Lions, fight for fame
Pass the ball right down the field (court) boys
Touchdown (Basket) ev'ry time!
Onward Kennewick, onward Kennewick Lions, fight for fame
Fight, Lions, fight-fight-fight
To win this game!
K! E! N! NEW! I! C! K!
(rah-rah-rah)
(next two stanzas unspoken)
Fight, lions, fight-fight-fight To win this game!!!

and wrap around you,

Take the Lenox Avenue buses,

And for your love song tone their rumble down.”
