History
History
Opened in 1953, Kenston was formed following the consolidation of the Auburn and Bainbridge school districts. The name of "Kenston" was chosen from "Kent's Town", a name of the area that covered parts of both Auburn and Bainbridge Townships prior to the creation of the townships. "Bainburn" was also considered. At the time, high school students from Auburn were attending Bainbridge High School on a tuition basis. The nickname of the "Bombers" was carried over from Bainbridge High School and had originally been chosen in the 1940s as the B-25 bombers could be seen flying over the school to and from the nearby Ravenna Arsenal. In 2006 the high school moved to a new building on the same campus. The previous KHS building became Kenston Middle School.
