Pascack Valley High School students enrolled in Research in Molecular Genetics, taught by Dr. Marlene Healey, PV Science Teacher, recently participated in the Nokia Lab North Jersey Regional Science Fair held last month at Rutgers University. The following awards were given to students to recognize science projects completed in the course:
The Stockholm Water Award - First Place: Gillian Feder (left) and Kathleen Gifford
Microbiology - First Place Overall: Madeline Miller
Engineering - Second Place Overall: Yee Cheng
Computing - Fourth Place: Yee Cheng
The North Jersey Regional Science fair is a high school science competition designed to support, encourage, and recognize student research. It is the only local fair that feeds into the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair.
