Dr. Keshishian’s Message What can I say? Every time Mrs. Stern-Protz and I sit down to write this newsletter, I am truly impressed by the growth and rigor within the sciences and technology yet our goal remains the same. This is for the students of North Bergen and in this newsletter we are seeing the fruits of our labor. So please enjoy catching up on all the great news coming out of North Bergen.
NB Science Fair Revamped: Elementary District-wide Fair to all new competitors at Hudson County Science Fair This year for the first time in over a decade, the Science Department held a district-wide science fair to determine our top seventh grade students. There were over 50 participants, and the top ten students were selected to participate in the Hudson County Science Fair, now referred to as the STEM showcase. It was an amazing event with parents, administrators, and teachers stopping in to see the students’ work. A special thanks goes out to the judges (Mr. Aguiar, Ms. Sekkas, Mrs. Abdelhadi, Mrs. Hojnowski & Mrs. Maldonado) for volunteering on a Friday night. I am proud to announce the winners.
