JFK Sunday Update
Dear Kennedy Families,
I hope everyone had a restful weekend after the tumultuous events of Friday. We have now identified all the students involved in the situation that caused so much confusion and commotion on Friday. We are actively collaborating with law enforcement to address any additional onlie threats. We deeply appreciate the students who came forward with information to their teachers and our administration, rather than spreading rumors on social media. Misinformation can easily escalate anxiety, and we rely on our community to help curb the spread of rumors.
