About JFK
Built in 1964, the John F. Kennedy Elementary School is located in a residential neighborhood and borders a brand-new playground in a beautiful wooded city park that offers spectacular views of the mighty Hudson River. This is a place where our city children can convene with nature. Inside our school, the hallways are clean, well lit and decorated with the students' writings and colorful artwork. The main hallway contains a large fish tank, giving children the opportunity to study the ecology up close. The dedicated staff greets the children each day ready to educate this next generation.
