We are the parents, families, teachers, and friends of John F. Kennedy School, a specialized public school serving students ages 5 to 22. Together we fund experiences, equipment, and support that help our students learn, grow, and explore the world beyond the classroom.
Whether you can give an hour, a dollar, or a friendly face at an event, there's a place for you here.
John F. Kennedy School serves students ages 5 to 22 with significant medical needs, mobility challenges, behavioral challenges, and other complex learning needs. The program is built on positive behavioral strategies, sensory integration, and a functional skills curriculum designed to build independence.
Every student has an individualized plan that includes vocational training, life skills, and transition skills such as mobility. JFK's highly trained staff are dedicated to helping each student reach their full potential and become a contributing member of our community.
The JFK Bobcats PTO is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit run entirely by volunteers. We exist to support JFK's students, families, and staff, and to build a community where every family feels welcome and knows they belong.
