For about a year, Neha Skandan ‘21 has been researching the opioid crisis with a focus on how teenagers can help adults mitigate the opioid crisis by assisting loved ones with opioid use disorders. A significant part of her project has entailed meeting with different experts in the community, including physicians at LVHN and leaders of outreach programs, who are at the forefront of addressing this crisis.
Seventh graders have selected topics for their SCORE projects, been matched up with mentors from our community both on and off campus, and are now off and running with their independent research.
In preparation for the the first annual Sixth-Grade Science Expo on February 27th, our sixth-grade scientists are very busy working on their experimental trials, adding the final touches to their inventions, and presenting their findings and conclusions to their peers.
