(2 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - The teaching staff a kimball is very racist and they definately show their favorites. On top of that the school is too poor to give the students what they need in their learning environment. The school is pretty old and it SHOWS. They need to get new (more teen-friendly) books. There is also alot of gang activity and many fights at the school dances and other social activities. One of the good things about the staff is that they know how to quickly and effectively handle the fights that break out quite frequently. Overall this school is pretty safe but the students and teaching staff is not very good.
