In very good to fine condition, with light handling wear and unobtrusive tape reinforcement to small edge tears. John F. Kennedy went to high school at the prestigious Choate School, a college-preparatory boarding school in Wallingford, Connecticut, where he gained recognition for his charisma and leadership skills, but was also known as a rambunctious prankster. Kennedy graduated from Choate in June 1935; despite finishing 64th of 112 students, he was voted as the 'most likely to succeed.'
