"Kennedy High School offers a rigorous academic program in Math, Science and History. It offer students to take accelerated classes such as Scholars, Honors, A.P. and also regular classes. This is a great school but some students do not belong here."

"Kennedy is a fairly decent school. This school has few problems such as racial issues, a few fights but nothing serious. I think the principal is horrible and she could do a beter job when it comes to discipline. She chooses to take the easy way out and just likes to take away all extra-curricular events such as the 2004 Homecoming and the 2005 Senior Prom. I think that is a terible thing to do and someone needs to stop her."

"Kennedy is not a great school at all. Security is terrible, and there is a huge drug problem that everyone chooses to ignore, or simply does not know about. Although the academics are improving they are still poor."
