I liked my experience at Kennedy. I just believe it needs to be updated facilities wise. The school was dirty and definitely needed more bathrooms throughout campus. The academics were just average, could be better and sometimes the teachers could have disciplined students more. But I will always be grateful to be a Titan!
John F. Kennedy has given me unforgettable memories and encouraged me to pursue my education and to value it. Of course, in the past 4 years, there have been challenges, but learning from my experience made me who I am today. John F. Kennedy High School works on a block schedule, which means I had more time to complete essential classes that I enjoyed. I see how Kennedy promotes growth and success. Kennedy is regarded by many as a small and irrelevant school, but the truth is that it is a hidden gold mine. I was lucky to be able to extend my learning here and take advantages, such as dual enrollment. Overall, at this high school, I had a very nice experience.
In my experience at John F. Kennedy, the school has been painfully average. Many of the teachers there are also average, however, you encounter few teachers who really care about their jobs and the students. These are the teachers who made my experience a little better. The quality of education at the school is very good despite the reputation that it had. The school no longer fits that reputation at all and is an overall good school. The one thing bad about the school though is the bathrooms. Many of the stalls don't lock and there are only two bathrooms that the students have access to in the whole school besides the bathrooms in the locker room. The locker room bathrooms are by far the worst in the school!
The education is great, and the teachers are okay.
