Moravian Academy's Girl Scouts are selling cookies, serving the community, and making STEM discoveries.

Recently, Colleen Marshall lead our Brownies to creating 50 Valentine’s day cards with special messages of love and hope for the senior residents at Moravian Village.  The girls were thrilled to bring smiles to the faces of these wonderful seniors who are still without visitors because of the pandemic.  A little loving service goes a long way! (Pictured above.)

While our Brownies were in engaged in philanthropy, our Juniors were engaged in STEM.  Dr. Lorenzo Servitje and Mary Servitje lead the girls in building Corsi-Rosenthal boxes.  

The girls learned the basic science behind the physics of airflow and the biology of particulates (this will not be high-level fluid mechanics or aerobiology about coronavirus as much as this is how air moves in a room and it can carry things of different sizes that we don't want to breathe in).  Not only did the girls build their Corsi-Rosenthal boxes, but they tested them out with a fog machine to visually see the filtration process.  The Juniors were encouraged to use their finished boxes in their own homes or donate them to someone that could benefit from the added air purification! 

Colleen and I are so honored to be a part of a program that assists our young ladies growth and development in a myriad of different ways!
