The worst part was having to fear the fact that we weren't going to be ready for responsibility's, but at least the teachers knew proper professionalism and could properly teach our generation.

John F Kennedy has a very good IB/DP program, it's one of the best out there. And has many Ap classes, all of which can help you get into a good college.
8/1/2024
Things could be ran better and should take different approaches for problems. Not great at all to be honest.
