Wanted to share an update: two years later, and after my other child just graduated the AC, we are still very happy with Kenwood, its leadership, and its MANY caring teachers.
If you are considering Kenwood, and especially if you are a neighborhood family looking for a strong option WITHOUT having to schedule in a long commute, Kenwood is an excellent choice. Also, there are MANY ways for parents to get involved and I strongly recommend joining "Friends of Kenwood Academy," (FOKA) which is the philanthropic fundraising organization run by parents, alumni, and community members. FOKA raises money for the school to help bridge the gap between what the school provides to fund a top-notch education and what the CPS provides. (www.friendsofkenwoodacademy.org)
My child is now a rising JUNIOR and she is still going strong and all-in on being a Proud Bronco! read more
