Hello  families! My name is Mr. Jacob Kennedy and I am very excited to be back at Ridgeview JR/SR High School for my 16th year and 18th year teaching overall. I look forward to a positive year where your junior high students and I can grow and learn together. 

I graduated from LeRoy High School, Lincoln College and Illinois State University.  My wife, Stacie Kennedy, and I have a wonderful family of 5 kids, Kylie 19, Cole 17, Kellen 13, Caris 11, and Corden. 

I am also the Head Basketball Coach, Freshman/JV Assistant Football Coach, and the district Athletic Director.
