School spirit & history

Knights throughout the years

Since 1959 Kimberlin has been a school of excellence. Our mascot, the knight, has been a symbol of persistence in the face of obstacles, kindness to others, and respect to all over the years.

History behind Kimberlin Academy

Kimberlin Academy for Excellence opened in the fall of 1987. It was in an older building that for many years had housed the Harriet Kimberlin Elementary School.

Students who ranked higher than the 90th percentile in test scores or were artistically or musically talented could apply for admission to the newly identified magnet academy. In addition to these students, children who lived in close distance to the school were included in the school.
