    Welcome to the Robert F. Kennedy Community Schools

    RFK Community Schools is a 24-acre, Kinder through 12th grade campus comprised of six autonomous Pilot Schools located at the site of the former Ambassador Hotel. Students are offered a rigorous and personalized instructional program that embodies the social justice legacy of Senator Robert F. Kennedy.
