WHAT MAKES PACE DIFFERENT?
* Small Community of Learners
PACE students get the best of both worlds. PACE classes are grouped together in one part of the campus so that students benefit from a close-knit environment, yet have access to all the benefits of a large school. Freshmen start our program during the summer and arrive at Kennedy's campus in the fall already having established PACE friendships.
* Access to Extensive AP Curriculum
We encourage students to take advantage of the wide variety of AP classes that Kennedy has to offer. Students can choose among many AP subjects including: biology, calculus, statistics, chemistry, English language & composition, English literature & composition, government, physics, Spanish, art, US history, world history and more.
* Academic Support
We support our students by holding PACE Homework/Tutoring Lab four days a week so students can receive extra help for their challenging courses. PACE teachers are accessible both before school and after school to provide tutoring or just a quiet place to study.
* College Counseling
Students are guided through the college admissions process by having access to a full-time counselor. Our evening Information Series assists parents with strategies for supporting their child through this complex process.
* Sacramento City College classes held at JFK
Several academic and enrichment courses taught by Sacramento City College professors are offered each semester on the JFK campus. Students wishing to challenge themselves and to enhance their high school education are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity.
