At Monday's Board of Education meeting, new superintendent Dr. Carol Birks announced a Town Hall event for Tuesday, April 3, 5:30 pm, at Gateway Community College. Details to follow.
This Saturday is a Science Saturday!
Science on Saturdays:
Aging or Cancer: The Telomere Connection
THIS SATURDAY, MARCH 31, 10AM-12PM
STERLING CHEM LAB, 225 PROSPECT STREET (FREE PARKING AT SACHEM-PROSPECT GARAGE)
OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. NO REGISTRATION REQUIRED. BRING THE WHOLE FAMILY!
Why do some folks live to be 120 years old without developing cancer, while others develop cancer during childhood? You would think immortality is a good thing, but not when it leads to cancer. At Science on Saturday March 31, come listen to Professor Sandy Chang (Yale Pathology) tell us about how telomeres, the structures at the end of your chromosomes, link aging and cancer.
Science Saturdays is an award-winning lecture series designed for families that brings the excitement of research and the passion of scientists to the community. Each event involves a lecture by a Yale professor and an hour of hands-on science demonstrations run by Yale students. This weekend will feature an inflatable planetarium! Bring the whole family! Refreshments will be served. Free parking is available at the Sachem-Prospect Garage on Prospect Street. Entrance to the garage is in the Yale Ingalls Ice Rink lot.

STEM Expo March 26 -- Note Date Change!
The Engineering and Science University Magnet School
is proud to host its
5th Annual STEM Exposition on Thursday, March 26, 2018 from 4:00pm to 6:00pm
We invite you to come judge our student's innovative projects as they develop skills for living in a Highly Technological, Knowledge-Based Society.
ESUMS’ STEM Exposition is Project-Based Learning at its finest. Students are challenged to solve highly complex problems applying both fundamental skills (reading, writing, and math) with 21st century skills (teamwork, research gathering and time management) utilizing high tech tools. With this combination of skills, students become managers of their learning process, guided and mentored by a skilled teacher.
Each year, competing teams respond to a given challenge; the 2018 theme is “A Closer Look”. We invite you, along with other industry professionals, to judge our innovative projects in six content areas: Biology, Chemistry, Entrepreneurship, Mobile App Design, and 3D Modeling. Judges will grade teams on the six critical 21st Century Skills—Information Literacy, Creativity and Innovation, Collaboration, Problem Solving, Communication and Responsible Citizenship. Team websites will be available for review on March 1st. The group with the highest aggregate score in each category will move on to compete against 40 other Connecticut high schools at the Oakdale Theatre in Wallingford, CT on May 19, 2018.
Please join us at our new location on the campus of the University of New Haven!
