John F. Kennedy High School (Paterson, New Jersey)

John F. Kennedy Educational Complex (or John F. Kennedy High School) is a four-year public high school in Paterson, United States, that serves the western section of Paterson. Kennedy High School, which serves students in ninth through twelfth grade, is a part of the Paterson Public Schools. 93% of the students are of minority races, and a majority of them speak either a non-English language at home or are very limited in English. The school uses the Infinite Campus school management system for tasks such as student attendance and grading, and full online grade access is available online. In 2011, the school was split into theme schools, with four smaller academies operating within the high school, in order to give students a choice in areas they wanted to pursue. These schools are: School of Architecture and Construction Trades (ACT) School of Business, Technology, Marketing and Finance (BTMF) School of Education and Training (SET) School of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM)The school has been accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Elementary and Secondary Schools since 1928. It has suffered low rankings when it comes to official lists of top public schools in New Jersey, as well as accusations of violence and poor conduct by the school's instructors and the Paterson Education Association. As of the 2022–23 school year, the school had an enrollment of 2,053 students and 141.0 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 14.6:1. There were 1,035 students (50.4% of enrollment) eligible for free lunch and 25 (1.2% of students) eligible for reduced-cost lunch.
