Young Scientists Showcase Projects

Locust Valley Middle School students showcased their incredible experiments at last week’s science fair. Each group presented its project to staff members and high school science research students, and then enjoyed pizza and treats provided by the Middle School Parents Council.

Each group did an excellent job of proving their hypotheses and collecting data on project themes covering plant growth, solar eclipses, creating plastic and the effects of protein bars on exercise. Congratulations to sixth graders Aidan Contois, Jason Eisenberg and Liam McGovern for taking home first place for their project, “Dairy Dilemma.”
