Franklin School: Mrs. Janz’s class created chain reaction machines. With the power of height, transfers, and collisions, we created a secret message that would only be seen with just the right energy. Through the way, we learned that chain reactions are hard work and we used a lot of problem-solving and teamwork. We learned through perseverance!
All Kearny School District schools will be open and operating on a regular schedule tomorrow: Wednesday, January 28, 2026.

❄️Due to the current winter storm, all schools will be closed tomorrow, Monday, January 26. Please be safe and enjoy the rest of the weekend.☃️
