Principal's Message

Dear Kennedy Families, Friends, and Community Members,
 
It is an honor to be able to serve as the Principal of the John F. Kennedy School. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time here as a literacy coach and an assistant principal, the Kennedy is truly a special place. I am thrilled to be able to step into this new position, allowing me to support your children academically, socially, and emotionally. I am excited to work alongside the remarkable Kennedy staff to create lifelong learners who are prepared for the world that awaits them.
 
My hope is to continue and grow the incredible culture we have here at the Kennedy. I look forward to being partners with you and doing this outstanding and important work together.
 
Thank you for all of your continued support and being your child’s first teacher. 
 
Best,
Kelly Kistler
Principal, Kennedy School
