As a black/arab female, I felt really accepted and supported here. The people are friendly, whether that be the staff or students, and I didn't feel like the odd one out since it's so diverse. I've met so many people from so many different backgrounds and I'm so thankful for that after having to go to schools being the few minority there, this was such a pleasant change

I was an honors/AP student and was pretty disappointed to see that those classes were disproportionately white compared to the rest of the school. I think the school culture fails to appeal to more than one racial group at a time and students tend to socially segregate. I feel like that aspect takes away a lot of the great parts away from Kennedy.
