Washington School held their own World Cup in honor of the games coming to New Jersey. The tournament took place over 3 days with Team Brazil winning the Washington World Cup. This was an awesome school wide event with hand drawn signs, students decked out in soccer gear, and teams excited to compete. Kearny is called Soccer Town USA for a reason! Thank you to Mr. Postel for being a great coach and referee to our students! Check out more photos on our school instagram @washingtonschoolnj ⚽️

Students in Mrs. Curry’s KEEP Class at Garfield School showed off their technological know-how at the school’s STEM Fair.
