Washington Time Capsule Opening

Thank you to everyone who was able to join us for the opening of the Washington School time capsule yesterday! It was a special moment to see everything that was left behind for the future generations of Little Ferry to discover - including the American flag with only 48 stars! Want a closer look at the items found in the time capsule? The full album of photos can be found in this link: https://bit.ly/LFTimeCapsule
