Being the largest of the Tri-Cities in terms of population, the Kennewick School District (KSD) is frequently expanding. The economy is steady, housing prices are competitive, and space for expansion is abundant in Kennewick, making it an extremely desirable place to live in Washington State.

There is an atmosphere of fun, acceptance, and education in the KSD, and it earns its respect among the ranks of great Washington school districts.
