Live On Campus - Boys
St. Edward's Dormitory, the all-male residence hall on campus at Kennedy Catholic, is a happy, safe, and home-like environment. Led by our dormitory parents, in-house staff, St. Edward's is a place where individual students feel included, respected, and valued. As students create meaningful and enduring relationships with peers and faculty, they also develop an understanding of, and appreciation for, students with diverse backgrounds and life experiences.

If there was one thing Kennedy Catholic did perfectly, it was making me feel welcome! Not only was the International Office helpful with getting me started, the students too! Everyone was kind and super helpful, the teachers were understanding, and they never got tired of answering questions no matter how simple they were. I think Kennedy Catholic is a great high school because of the rigorous education and the wonderful people that I come across every single day.

Live Off Campus - Girls
St. Bernadette’s Girls Dorm, the new all-girl residence hall, is located off campus five minutes from Kennedy Catholic High School. Girls will enjoy a happy, safe, and home-like environment led by a female-only, in-house staff. Each resident is also part of a smaller “family group,” led by a female dorm staff member who provides extra attention and care. The dorm staff promote self-discipline and responsible decision making to prepare students for life beyond high school.

Homestay
In a homestay, you'll live with an American family who has applied, been accepted, and carefully screened to host international students. International students can also live with an approved local adult relative or family friend! Living with a local family is a unique, meaningful and memorable experience. Homestays are a great way to practice your English skills in a friendly relaxed, setting, make friends and learn about American culture. Host families maintain regular communication with the school to ensure a safe and happy homestay experience for our students.
