🌟 JCEA Small Biz Saturday Spotlight 🌟
This week, we’re proud to highlight O’Learys Publik House, a true Jersey City staple that has always shown up for our school community and beyond.
Owned by Fire Captain Kevin Hennessy and our very own Sylvia Hennessy of PS 16, O’Learys has been more than just a neighborhood pub. it’s been a gathering place for educators, first responders, and the JC community.
From after school staff happy hours, holiday parties, election night watch parties, and last day of school celebrations, to toy drives for Jersey City youth, O’Learys consistently gives back. During the height of COVID, they even partnered with the JCEA to provide hot meals for our first responder; showing true leadership and heart when it mattered most.
Thank you, Kevin & Sylvia, for your continued support of our educators, our students, and our city.
Be sure to stop by O’Learys Publik House and support a business that truly supports Jersey City Public Schools and the entire community.
