We are excited to announce that John F. Kennedy High School’s Class of 2026 Graduation Ceremony will be held on June 8, 2026, at 1:30 p.m. at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC).

All MCPS high school graduations will take place at UMBC this year to ensure a comfortable indoor setting, accessible parking, and reduced costs for families. MCPS will share additional details about transportation options, tickets, and logistics as the date approaches. Please read the letter sent to the families of the Class of 2026 graduates here.

We look forward to celebrating this milestone with our seniors and their families!

 

PSAT on Wednesday, October 25th

The PSAT will be administered districtwide on Wednesday, October 15, 2025. The PSAT will be taken digitally only, with students accessing the assessment through the Bluebook application. The PSAT and SAT assessments are used to measure students' College and Career Readiness.

The PSAT will remain free to all Grade 10 students. Every Grade 10 student must participate and will automatically be registered for the test. However, Grade 9 and Grade 11 students must pay the $17.00 fee and are encouraged to participate to obtain additional SAT practice. Grade 11 students that opt to take the PSAT may participate in order to qualify for the National Merit Scholarship Program.

Please read our PSAT Letter.
