Students from Chicago Heights School District 170's Greenbriar School displayed an assortment of displays detailing a wide-ranging variety of studies at the annual Science Fair held recently in the school's gymnasium.
A large group, comprised of community members, parents, staff, students, and administrators attended the event.
Students from different grade levels presented projects displaying areas of the physical, biological and earth sciences, along with various "hands-on" Science activities.
The presentations reflected experiments and research conducted throughout the year. Students created their presentations to explain their hypotheses and concluding results.
I could not be prouder of my student's accomplishments," said Laura Wolframski, Greenbriar School's junior high Science teacher. "As their science teacher, I was thrilled to watch our students take what they have learned and become scientists themselves!"
"The amazing thing is the fact that the students always find ways to amaze me and watching them push themselves to succeed and teach others truly is my greatest reward as a teacher. Science Rules!!!!"
Jaqwann Scott, recognized as the 2018 "Best of Fair" winner, expanded upon Wolframski's statements saying, "If you put in the work and try your best you will achieve success."
In discussing the Science Fair, Principal Joe Taylor praised the efforts of the teachers, students, and the audience who attended the event.
"Greenbriar School always welcomes the opportunity to host events that showcase the superb efforts of our students, teachers, and staff, and welcomes parents, families, friends, and other members of the community to join us in celebrating our students' success."
