Planet Earth Field Trip to Rutgers-Newark
Wednesday, November 12th, Planet Earth visited the Earth and Environmental Science Department at Rutgers-Newark. The NewGeo graduate students worked with Planet Earth students to test the soil from the Kearny High garden for pH levels and heavy metals. Our students had an opportunity to use petrographic microscopes, which let them see minerals under cross-polarized light.
The geophysics department let students try out equipment used for looking at the subsurface of the earth with ground penetrating radar, seismic reflection, and electrical conductivity and resistivity tests. The microbiology department showcased their research into Honeypot ants. Their investigation may lead to a breakthrough in food preservation.
Rutgers once again gave students a tour of the Boyden Hall Greenhouse with Professor Rabinowitz. Everyone’s camera came out when he demonstrated how the Venus Flytrap eats. Dr. Gates finished the day off with a favorite every year - The Oil Game. Students got to experience what geologists do when looking for oil and natural gas, and how fast companies can get rich or go broke.
This was the 5th year that Rutgers-Newark has invited the Planet Earth students to experience the Earth and Environmental Science Department, and as always, everyone learned a lot and had a great time.

The Kearny High School 2025 senior play is “Puffs” by Matt Cox, a parody of the Harry Potter book series by J.K. Rowling, but from the perspective of the "Puffs": that is, members of the Hogwarts house, Hufflepuff.
The play will be performed on December 5 & 6 at 7:00pm in the Kearny’s High School auditorium under the direction of Milagros Gonzalez. The cost of the ticket is $6 for students and senior citizens and $8 for adults. All proceeds go to the class of 2026.

From flying drones to diving into AI and Virtual Reality, our KHS Computer Science students experienced the power of computing firsthand at Montclair State University! Huge thanks to the amazing professors and students who shared their passion and inspired the next generation of tech innovators. #DayOfComputing #STEMEducation

Franklin School’s MD classes had a wonderful time at Demarest Farms!
Students enjoyed a fun-filled day that included a hayride, visiting the animals, playing on the playground, and picking pumpkins 🎃. To wrap up the trip, everyone enjoyed delicious apple cider and donuts — the perfect way to celebrate a beautiful fall day 🍂

The KHS science department celebrated Mole Day as part of National Chemistry Week. A Mole in chemistry is used to count very tiny atoms using Avogadro's Number, about 600 billion trillions or 6 times 10 to the 23rd power (thank you Mr. Vega!) to get masses we can study in the lab.

KHS Success students went to Kearny’s Shop Rite to shop for items needed in their Independent Living Class to enhance their life skills as well as learning how to follow a shopping list. They will be working on their cooking, baking, cleaning and laundry skills throughout the year. Today was a great experience for all of them!!
