I played basketball for Kennedy High School and it was a very interesting experience. It was my first time ever being in a public high school and I learned a lot about public school culture. Overall, it was a pretty good experience. I really enjoyed practicing with my team. However, students in the school and the overall atmosphere of the school didn't seem very inviting, but rather intimidating.

Kennedy Highschool is a very diverse place with wonderful teachers and staff as well as a great administration who listen to their students. Although it has all this, the education is a bit flawed and you don't learn as much as you hope at this school. But you are welcome to join one of the amazing clubs provided at this school such as Kennedy's Rhythm in Gold Varisty which I am currently in. Overall, pretty good school.

The best and strongest part of Kennedy is their diversity and community. The staff has always put an emphasis on supporting each other. The friendship between the school staff and students is also great. Some cons of Kennedy would probably be the mediocre food, the grades and homework, and their harshness. My personal experience at Kennedy was fine but I know for some it was completely different.
