I was associated with this school a while back and this was the worst experience of my life. The administration is weak and does not support teachers.The students are out of control. This is a dangerous place to send your child or to work in.

I am a graduate of Kankakee High School, and had recently been employed as support staff.I had been in District 111 since the third grade and do not regret being one of its students neither was I ever interested in working in any other district. With anything, there is room for improvement, but I believe you can only do what you can. Most times parents blame teachers, staff and other students for how their own children turn out.parents, you are your child's first teacher and often times first friend. Contrary to popular belief, the administration and teachers care a great deal about student achievement and they work hard to see that they excel. Kankakee, as a whole, has been given a bad rap, but when its all said and done, we are a community of people who care about one another. 'Who Can? We Can! Kankakee Can!'

I would never regret graduating from Kankakee High School. I am much more well rounded than a lot of people with whom I attend school now. The cultural background has made me a stronger person, and I don't appreciate it when people bash my high school. For those of you who had trouble fitting in, maybe there's something wrong with your child. Almost all people find friends easily. The school is extremely diverse, which just adds to the atmosphere. The athletic teams have been struggling, but the academics are getting stronger everyday. The English department is awesome. The science department could use some help though. The drama department is the best around.

I am a student at KHS and I really don't appreciate some of what you people have said. Kankakee is a learing experience as is all school, yes I agree sometimes people in the school make it a hinderence to learn...but have you looked how many achievments people have made that have graduated from this school...I would never not go to this school it has been a great experience for me and it is just like the real worlddon't hinder our school unless you have gone through it...I would never ever switch schools! -A dissapointed student
