Kennedy is a great school. Kennedy offers a lot of sports and clubs they other schools don't. The teachers teach very well and are very nice and understanding with students. The only issue I have with the school is the number of students. There are around 100 kids in the whole school and around 10-15 kids in a grade. I would like to change that and encourage more kids to attend Kennedy to make it more fun.

I have attended Kennedy Catholic Family of Schools since pre-k. I am now an upcoming senior and it is safe to say I have experienced all parts of the school. It is truly a family and I would not change where I attended my schooling for anything. It lacks in certain areas at certain times but it is an amazing place to have experienced for so long. The choices with teachers are kind of off sometimes but I have had some pretty amazing ones. I can't say that I have to many complaints.

My son came to Kennedy from a public school 6 years ago! Only regret is...we didn't send him sooner! Classes are smaller and these kids are family to each other. He absolutely loves everything about Kennedy!!

Both of my daughters have had an awesome experience. Kennedy develops the whole child, spiritually, academically and athletically. Their boys and girls basketball programs rank consistently in the top 5 in the state year after year. We couldn’t be happier! No school is perfect but Kennedy is special...

My daughter cannot imagine attending a school that prayer is not happening during their school day. The spiritual foundation is incredible.

I have two children enrolled in the high school. The teachers expect a high amount of responsibility from the kids which in return they have respect. The top 20 percent of each class are gifted. Great gem for hermitage. More scholarships than any public school.
