district accountability
CPS publishes no school ranking — it retired its 1+/1/2+ levels — so these sit beside the district average rather than a position in a list.

Frequently asked questions
- How do you get into Kenwood Academy High School?
- Rank it on your GoCPS application by November 13. Kenwood Academy High School offers AP Capstone, Honors / Scholars — each program has its own admission route, and several take no admissions test at all.
- Does Kenwood Academy High School have a ranking?
- No — and neither does any CPS school. The district retired its 1+/1/2+ school levels, so any ranking you see comes from a third party, not CPS. What CPS does publish is on this page: the graduation and college-enrollment rates beside the district average.
