Kearny School District -

Kearny Schools Family Fun Night for students for deaf and hard of hearing and their families.

Franklin School-Ms. Abrams’s class enjoyed exploring the life cycle of a butterfly!

History came to life today at Garfield School, where 4th graders hosted their annual Wax Museum event. Dressed as their favorite historical figures, from Rosa Parks and Dr. Seuss to Taylor Swift and Jackie Robinson, students transformed the gymnasium into a living gallery. Each student stood beside a hand-crafted tri-fold presentation filled with fascinating facts, ready to "come to life" at the press of a button. Parents and teachers were invited to walk through the museum, pressing buttons to hear short, student-delivered biographies.

Ms. Kolheffer and Ms. Klein's class at Franklin School released their butterflies 🦋 yesterday after learning about the life cycle and the changes they went through. Students in Ms. Hatfield's class Kearny High School also took part in this special activity, releasing their butterflies at their school as well. Thank you to Mrs. DeLima for giving both schools the opportunity to experience this! ☀️ All the students had a great time enjoying the sunshine and the butterflies! 🦋☀️
