Lincoln Middle School -

Reminder: Tonight’s LMS Promotion Ceremony will begin promptly at 6:30 PM at the Kearny High School Stadium. Please allow yourself time to find parking, you may enter through both sides of the stadium.

If weather conditions require us to move the ceremony indoors, all families will be notified no later than 5:30 PM and each student has 2 tickets for entry. We recommend bringing light rain gear or an umbrella just in case as we DO NOT want to move the event indoors.

Please note that if light rain develops after the ceremony has begun, we will continue with the event as scheduled, so please come prepared.

The Ceremony will be livestreamed via youtube on the KEARNY BOE Livestreaming Page.

Thank you for your continued partnership and support throughout your child's middle school journey. We are grateful for our Lincoln Middle School families and look forward to celebrating this special milestone with the Class of 2026.

Lincoln Middle School students were recognized as honorees at the 2026 "History Happened Here" Expo at Rutgers University, where they showcased award-winning multimedia projects created through their "Revolutionary Roots" initiative.

Stepping into the roles of researchers, writers, podcasters, artists, and civic leaders, students explored Kearny's history through the RevolutionNJ and America 250 initiatives. The interdisciplinary project connected local stories to the broader American experience, earning statewide recognition for their creativity, scholarship, and community engagement.

Reminder: State testing begins tomorrow, May 4th. Please encourage students to get a good night’s sleep, eat a healthy breakfast, charge their Chromebooks, and arrive on time.
Monday and Tuesday dismissal is at 12:54 PM. Thank you!

Today, we celebrate our amazing Administrative Professionals who keep the our school district running smoothly each and every day. From welcoming families to supporting staff and students, your organization, care, and dedication make a lasting impact across our schools. Thank you for all that you do!

Dear Families,

As the weather begins to warm up and we anticipate a brief heat wave, I wanted to share a quick update. While our building is equipped with air conditioning, it will not be fully operational until Thursday, April 16th, due to necessary system preparations.

In the meantime, please encourage your children to stay well hydrated. We do have filtered water stations available throughout the school.

Additionally, students may now wear shorts. Per our dress code, black or khaki shorts are permitted and should be worn with the standard uniform shirt. We ask that you please check that your child’s shorts are of appropriate length before they come to school. When in doubt, opting for a longer pair is always a safe choice. As usual, if there are any concerns with dress code we will call home to inform you.

Thank you for your continued support in helping us maintain a comfortable and appropriate learning environment for all students.
