Kell High School was named in the fall of 2024 to the US News and World Report's Top High Schools in the United States. The U.S. News rankings include data on nearly 25,000 public high schools in 50 states and the District of Columbia. In addition to traditional high schools, the rankings encompass charter, magnet, science, technology, engineering, and math-focused schools.
