King's Fork High School

According to Ripley Rodriguez Maddox Motley, "Each house contains space for assistant principal, guidance counselor, teacher work areas, general classrooms, science labs, and resource spaces in addition to two to three specialized career/technical subjects. A guidance suite was also included near Administration for flexibility in future guidance arrangements. Science labs are designed as generically as possible with only Chemistry having a necessary uniqueness. Each pair of science lecture spaces shares a wet lab and preparation partitions. Specialty subjects such as Agriculture, Work/Family Studies, Health, JROTC, and Liberal Arts that are not suited for location within houses are properly placed according to need and required access. Instructional areas typically share a small computer lab. The small lab requires less building area but offers more computers per classroom when time-sharing is utilized."

King's Fork High School offers an extensive range of courses at core, honors, and Advanced Placement levels, in addition to various dual enrollment classes offered through the Hobbs campus of Paul D. Camp Community College, also located in Suffolk, and through Tidewater Community College. In addition to academic courses, King's Fork High offers a range of agricultural and resource management courses.

Due to the nature of student interests at the school, only certain core subjects are offered at the AP level at King's Fork, and the arts department often has too few students for courses in music theory or other such classes. However, beginning in the 2008–2009 school year, King's Fork began offering courses beginning at the freshman level through the IB (International Baccalaureate) program, in addition to its current curriculum.

King's Fork High has an athletic program; however, due to the school's relative new status, few of the programs have yet to build up to a successful level. The most notable of these are men's and women's varsity basketball teams, which have broken through to the district and regional level. The 2008-2009 men's varsity basketball team won the AAA state championship.

The first extracurricular program to achieve statewide recognition from King's Fork was the drama program, which won second place at the 2006 AAA VHSL Theater Festival, under the direction of former drama teacher Clyde Berry.

In 2017, the Bulldogs football team made school history by winning its first ever Southeastern District title. Notable about the victory was the fact that King's Fork upset longtime powerhouse Oscar Smith, and ended Smith's 99-game district win streak - which dated back to 2006 - in a 29–23 win.

In 2017-2018 Kings fork high school Mighty Marching Bulldogs would travel to Charlotte North Carolina to compete in the High-Step Nationals Competition with Marching Bands all throughout the United States. The MMB would achieve 1st place in Class 3A, with top scoring Dance Team, Majorettes, and 2nd Highest Flag Team at the event. The group would be awarded 3rd place overall in the Nation.

In 2020, the Bulldogs men's basketball team won another state championship, sharing the VHSL title with Woodrow Wilson High School (Virginia) of Portsmouth. The schools were scheduled to play one another in the championship, which was cancelled due to the COVID-19 outbreak. The VHSL cancelled all championship games following the semifinals; the schools slated to play in the championships were subsequently named co-champions.
