Eight members of the Bay View Academy chapter of Excalibur, the National Honor Society for Excellence in Science, visited the Sacred Heart School in East Providence on Friday, January 23, to serve as judges in the school’s annual science fair.
According to Bay View junior Jamie Tebeau, as a result of the student judges having completed science fair projects themselves, these judges had the opportunity to take the opposite perspective by discussing and judging individual science projects completed by the sixth, seventh, and eighth-graders at Sacred Heart. The Bay View judges enjoyed interacting with the Sacred Heart students, who described individual projects representing disciplines ranging from biology and chemistry to physics and engineering. The top ten projects from Sacred Heart will advance to the Rhode Island Science and Engineering Fair in March.
