I was a quiet kid during my time at POBJFK. I felt comfortable in my smaller classes with specific teachers while other classes and teachers made me feel uncomfortable. I'd say it was a pretty typical high school experience for me.

Plainview old Beth page John f Kennedy is a very good school. You never have to worry about students being included with how diverse the environment is, additionally, there are tons of resources in sports, extracurriculars, and education. One downside might be the fact that it does get a little boring in Plainview. But at least you can ensure stability for your education.

This school is appalling. Of it's staff, there are a very select amount who are genuinely concerned with the education of their students. The atmosphere has changed from open and education-oriented to conservative and test-based. Education is no longer about learning at this school, it's about test...

This school is horrendous. There's a reason the students call it JFK, "jail for kids". The administration and teachers are a joke. I go to an ivy league school and will not give an ounce of credit for my achievements to any person associated with this poor excuse of a school. The teachers only care...
