Kirby High School (KHS) is a public high school in the Hickory Hill community of Memphis, Tennessee, United States, and is a part of the Shelby County Schools district. KHS was established in 1980 as part of the Shelby County School System, serving students from grades 7 to 10, subtracting and adding grades until the first graduating class left KHS at the end of the 1982–83 school year.[citation needed] It later became a Memphis City School campus, after Memphis annexed Hickory Hill in 1999.[2]
