This gallery is a way to highlight the remarkable products of art education in the district. It’s a digital attempt at bringing the work of our student artists at all levels into your home – because art is created for others to take in.

Congrats on our winners at Family Fun Night!  More winners found here!

Kennedy kids are using technology in the classroom in many different ways!  Some classrooms are documenting their work in digital portfolios using Seesaw.  Some are completing assignments using an iPad or laptop, and some are using augmented reality as a launch to a writing project.  Check out some pics!

Congrats to Mrs. Ludovissy who submitted a Foundation for Dubuque Schools grant for books to add to our Book Room.  She was awarded a Judi Chandlee Tribute to Teachers Award in the amount of $400.  

4^th Annual Kennedy Food Drive is a wrap!  The school brought in 531 items for the food pantry.  That was 464 pounds of food.

The winning class was 5Sanchez.  They collected 125 items.  They were the winners of a huge bucket of cheese balls.  The food was donated to St. Stephen’s Food Bank and it will be distributed to organizations and people in our community in need.

It was a gorgeous sunny day for the Family Fun Run at Kennedy that followed the 5K.  Lots of kids and families were full of color!  Check out the photo album!
