Yesterday we held a big assembly to announce the experiment selected to go to space! It was so exciting – the gym was filled with all of our 4th – 8th graders, cheering for all the teams who participated.
We are so proud of all of the students who participated. Our Stage 1 Review Panel received 77 proposals, which were narrowed down to 3 amazing finalists. The three finalists’ proposals were excellent, and I am sure the Stage 2 Review Panel had a hard time choosing a winner!
Congratulations to…Eric Chen and Eren Fitzgerald! These two outstanding 5th graders will send their experiment to space on STS-135. Their experiment is titled “Will Microgravity Effect the Development of Goldfish?”
Way to go, team!
