Our staff went to areas within our Kennedy boundaries and captured photos of designated areas. | Support Local Businesses Kennedy supports local businesses in our community, and we are thankful to all of our local businesses for supporting Kennedy Elementary over the years! | Newark Lake The purpose of the scavenger hunt activity was to refresh, recharge, and remember that this is the wonderful community that we serve!
