Two students win awards at the Virginia Piedmont Regional Science Fair

At Friday’s assembly, we were delighted to learn that two of the middle schoolers were awarded prizes at the Virginia Piedmont Regional Science Fair, held this past Monday at John Paul Jones Arena. This picture is of an experiment done to determine if girls and boys are more likely to have the same eye colors as their mother or father, respectively.

One of our 7th graders was awarded Second Prize in Cellular & Molecular Biology, Junior Division

One of our 8th graders performed an experiment to determine which local woods could hold the most weight. He won an Honorable Mention:

This student built a model to see how much weight each type of wood could hold

Congratulations to the students and to Jebb, their teacher!
