The Kearny School District honors Presidents’ Day as we reflect on the leadership, vision, and service that have shaped our nation. As Theodore Roosevelt once said, “It is true of the Nation, as of the individual, that the greatest doer must also be a great dreamer.” In our schools, we see the leaders of tomorrow. May we continue to inspire our students to dream boldly and lead with courage and integrity.
In collaboration with the Hudson County Transportation Management Association and the Roosevelt School PTA, Roosevelt School celebrated their crossing guards - Eusebio, Mindy, Norma, and Robert - in recognition of their selfless dedication and service to our school community.
No matter the weather, these individuals show up to ensure the safety of our students and families.
All Kearny School District schools will be open and operating on a regular schedule tomorrow: Wednesday, January 28, 2026.
