Since then Kecoughtan has been used as an educational facility for high school students in the Fox Hill area, a major neighborhood in the Hampton Roads region.

The word Kecoughtan comes from the name of the Virginia Algonquian Native Americans living there when the English colonists arrived in the Hampton Roads area in 1607.

Kecoughtan High School offers Baseball, Basketball, Cheerleading, Cross country, Field Hockey, Football, Golf, Soccer, Softball, Swimming, Tennis, Track, Boys and girls volleyball and Wrestling.

In 2016, the school's wrestling team completed its first undefeated regular season, for the first time in the program's history.

The band was part of the 2011 National Memorial Day Parade Lineup in Washington, D.C., on May 30, 2011.
