Kindle Education Public Charter School

What a way to celebrate the end of the school year! 🎢🎉

Yesterday, Kindle students headed to Nickelodeon Universe for a day filled with roller coasters, laughter, and memories with friends. From conquering thrilling rides to enjoying time together outside the classroom, students had the opportunity to celebrate all of their hard work and accomplishments from the past year.

As we close out another incredible school year, we're grateful for opportunities like these that help build community, strengthen friendships, and create lasting memories. We hope our students had as much fun as we did watching them enjoy a well-deserved day of celebration!

Last night, Kindle transformed into a museum of student work for our annual Spring Exhibition.

From innovative designs and scientific investigations to artistic creations and community-focused projects, each classroom showcased a different project from the spring semester, giving students the opportunity to share their learning with family members, friends, and staff.

One of the most powerful aspects of the evening was seeing students step into the role of experts—explaining their process, reflecting on challenges they overcame, and sharing the ideas that inspired their work. The exhibition was a celebration not just of finished products, but of curiosity, creativity, perseverance, and growth.

Thank you to all of the families, friends, and community members who joined us. We loved gathering together to celebrate our students, learn from their work, and enjoy an evening of food and community.

We are so proud of all that our students accomplished this semester and grateful for the opportunity to share it with you.

Yesterday, we celebrated a milestone years in the making: the graduation of Kindle’s first-ever 8th grade class.

These students will always hold a special place in Kindle’s story. As our founding class, they took a chance on a new school and a vision that existed mostly on paper. Together with their families, they helped shape our community, traditions, and culture from the very beginning.

Over the past three years, we have watched them grow as learners, leaders, creators, teammates, and friends. They embraced challenges, explored new ideas, built meaningful relationships, and left their mark on our school in countless ways.

As they crossed the stage yesterday, we felt an overwhelming sense of pride and gratitude. Pride in all they have accomplished, and gratitude for the trust they placed in us as we built Kindle together.

Congratulations to the Kindle Middle School Class of 2026. Thank you for helping write the first chapter of our story. We can't wait to see what you do next. 🎓🧡

Last week, our 8th graders set out on one of their final adventures together before graduation season kicks into high gear.

Students started with a lock-in at school, spending the night with classmates before hopping on a bus bright and early for a day in Philadelphia. Along the way, they explored the city, visited historic landmarks, toured the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and most importantly, made memories with the peers they've spent the last three years growing alongside.

As the school year winds down, we're grateful for opportunities like this one that allow students to step away from their usual routines, strengthen friendships, and celebrate all they've accomplished together.

Tomorrow, the celebrations continue at the 8th Grade Formal. 🎉

🔥Join us next week for Kindle's Spring Exhibition, where our students will share the projects, performances, and learning experiences that have defined this year. From creative work and hands-on design projects to live performances and community celebration, this evening is an opportunity to see what happens when young people are given the space to explore their interests, pursue meaningful work, and grow as individuals.

Families, friends, and community members are all welcome as we celebrate the accomplishments of our Kindlers.

📅 Tuesday, June 16
⏰ 5:15–7:00 PM
📍 Kindle Education Public Charter School
35 Journal Square, 3rd Floor, Jersey City

We can't wait to celebrate with you.

The countdown is on! Tomorrow, our 8th graders head to Philadelphia for their 8th Grade Trip, one of several special experiences we've planned to celebrate the end of their middle school journey.

Earlier this week, students enjoyed an afternoon by the water at Exchange Place after earning the top spot in our NJSLA incentive competition this spring. Their hard work, perseverance, and commitment to doing their best paid off in a well-deserved afternoon of fun with friends.

As graduation draws closer, we're excited to create opportunities for our oldest Kindlers to reflect, celebrate, and make lasting memories together. We can't wait to see what adventures tomorrow brings!

This weekend, we welcomed our first-ever Kindle High School students and families for High School Orientation!

Returning Kindlers and new students came together to learn more about what they can expect this fall, meet members of our high school team, and begin building the relationships that will shape our inaugural high school community.

Launching a high school is about more than opening a new grade level. It's about creating a space where young people can deepen their sense of purpose, pursue their passions, and take increasing ownership of their learning and their future.

We are incredibly excited for what lies ahead and grateful to all of the students and families who joined us this weekend. The countdown to the first day of Kindle High School has officially begun!

🔥 High school starts here.

Science class was extra sweet today 🍦

After working incredibly hard on the NJSLA-Science assessment last week, our 8th graders got to celebrate with a hands-on ice cream making lab. Students explored the science behind freezing point depression while mixing, shaking, and (most importantly) taste-testing their creations.

At Kindle, we believe learning should be challenging, meaningful, and fun. Today was a great reminder that science can be all of those things at once.

We are so proud of our 8th graders and all they have accomplished this year!

As our students prepare for high school, we’re excited to celebrate the many paths they are pursuing and the opportunities ahead of them. Kindle students were admitted to a wide range of excellent programs, and we know they will continue to thrive wherever they go.

We’re especially excited that many members of the Class of 2026 will be continuing their journey as part of Kindle High School’s founding 9th grade class this fall. 🔥

Congratulations to our students and families on this exciting next chapter!
