Investing in students, schools, the future

At Kent ISD, our measures of success are simple. They are student achievement and customer service.

For an education service agency, these measures are indelibly linked. Our customers are the students, teachers, staff and administrators of 20 public school districts, Christian and Catholic schools and Public School Academies. If we do a good job of anticipating and fulfilling their needs, increased student achievement will result.

You, the general public and parents, are our customers too. We want to be your gateway to education information. If you don’t find the information you’re seeking on these pages, please contact our Communications Services staff at 616/364-1333.
