Students earn top medals at State Science Fair

4:30 AM | Posted by |

Congratulations to our State Science Fair Winners!

Three of our students made the 350 mile round trip trek to Southern Illinois University in Carbondale to compete in the annual Illinois Junior Academy of Science (IJAS) state science fair on Saturday, May 2, 2015.



Our three school finalists competed with nearly 1500 other students.  Over 1000 projects were judged and participants received one of the following certificates or medals (in order from lowest to highest): Participation, Bronze, Silver and Gold.

Congratulations to our medalists:
  • GOLD       Sophia Colarelli ( Behavior Science)
  • SILVER    Hannah Yep (Consumer Science)
  • SILVER    Kate Beecher (Physics)

This was a milestone of sorts for our science program as this was the largest group of projects to go to state competition and the farthest distance traveled to compete. Thank you to Mr. Jon Predny, our middle school science teacher, and to our students and their mothers for making this possible.
