I have enjoyed my time with Kennedy. The culture and the sports are terrific! I don't think Admin always handles things the best which can be tough but they are receptive to feedback with is nice.

I'd say my best part of high school so far is how I just meet random people and become friends with them out of nowhere. Also homecoming and prom or any dance events where you can dress up all fancy. The worst parts are probably how rude some people are but since I don't know them I guess it's not that big of a deal.

I have loved attending this school. I take a lot of advanced track classes and we have incredible support in that area as well as for students who are struggling. While we are not in the wealthiest district, our teachers really do care.

Love Kennedy. So many clubs, activities and more.

Kennedy is a good school but they lack an engineering program. Kennedy's partner school Jefferson has an amazing engineering program that offers a bunch of college credit. Kennedy needs to beef up there engineering program to get a better score from me.
