Welcome to JFK
Dear Students,
Welcome to John F. Kennedy High School! We appreciate the decision you have made to join the Kennedy Crusader family. All faculty and staff members are committed to doing all we can to provide you with the best and safest public educational experience possible in the great City of Chicago. We believe in you and your potential. Through willful action, disciplined effort and determination, you will succeed in helping Kennedy realize its mission and vision of preparing you for college and career readiness and success. John F. Kennedy High School is recognized by the North Central Accreditation Association as a community high school offering rigorous and relevant academic programs to all students. This is an exciting year as Kennedy will partner with the University of Illinois at Chicago and District 214 – John Hersey High School to develop a curriculum to maximize each student’s college and career skills development. We will also utilize Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS) which will instill in each student the JFK Crusader Way! We will all be challenging all students to get “PRIDE On Your Side!” Crusader PRIDE includes being Positive, Respectful, acting with Integrity, Determined, and striving for Excellence. This mantra was developed in collaboration with Kennedy students and staff.
