History

The Kenston Local School District was formed in 1953, with the consolidation of the former Bainbridge and Auburn Local School District. Kenston High School was built in the same year.[2]

The name Kenston originated from Kent's Town, the areas former name before townships were formed in the early 1800s. Prior to the school district settling for the name Kenston, Bainburn Local Schools were considered, a merger of the names Bainbridge and Auburn, of the consolidated school districts.[3]

Kenston built its new high school in 2006 on Bainbridge Rd, the former high school buildings was repurposed as a middle school.
