What happened
Where it happened
- Kearny, Hudson County.
For people who were at Kearny High School on September 11, 2001, the Manhattan skyline is tied to memories that remain vivid 25 years later.
Amanda Eustice returned to the school for an anniversary report, sharing accounts from people who were inside its classrooms that morning. They remember hearing the first news on the radio, looking out toward the World Trade Center and trying to understand what was happening.
The report stays with those personal recollections: the classroom routines interrupted, the uncertainty as information arrived, and the lasting effect on the people who witnessed the attacks from across the river.
Shared for the 25th anniversary, the piece preserves Kearny voices for generations who did not experience that day.
