"my daughter arrived 2 years ago from Boston where she was attending a private school. We were afraid the classes would not meet her expectations but she is very happy with the atmosphere and her teachers."

"My neice lost her Mother, my sister, last year. I live out-of-town and have been very concerned about my neice's well-being and how she's been coping. I have heard through other family members that Kennedy's staff has been compassionate and supportive of my sweet neice. This is huge and I thank you."

"I would like to say that at first I was concerned because of an incident of bullying, but I have a freshman at Kennedy H.S. this year and have been very pleased about the way they have looked out for my son. I feel it's in a safe neighborhood. Most of the teachers really care about the kids and really try to work with them and the parents. I only wish there were more opportunities and programs of many interests for the kids so they don't have to go to a school out of their area in an unsafe neighborhood. The principal is a fine principal and does everything he can to improve any problem areas. Kennedy deserves a better rating!"

"The school has taken away events and clubs because of so discipline issues last year. This effects even the children with good grades. This should not effect A & B students!"
