The district consists of one high school, one middle school and one elementary school. All school buildings and offices are located within Chagrin Falls, Ohio.
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]
