Magnet students in grades 9-12 presented this year’s research and project work at our 8th annual CHS MST Student Research Symposium. This year’s showcase included more than 45 original research projects. Accenting the scientific overtones of the showcase were several student musicians from the program who provided piano entertainment in the Commons.
After the open house fair in the Commons, several projects were showcased and presented on the main CHS theater stage. Seniors Jonathan Ho, Jonathon Bartlett, Sophie Shoemaker, Megal Sheth, and Reese Pathak spoke on behalf of the Class of 2015. Freshmen William Sun, Gabe Mukobi, Noah Thompson, and Daniel Fan represented the underclassmen.
In addition to the presentations, the junior Magnet class, who organize and play a key role in the planning of the Symposium every year, presented special project-based awards that were voted on by their class. The following recognitions were made:
- Best Poster Design: Maxine Hood (12)
- Project Most Likely to Change the World: Reesab Pathak (12)
- Project with Best Jargon: Sophie Shoemaker (12)
- Project with Most Magnet-esque Appeal: Jackson Merle (12)
- Best Calves (Honorary Gag Award): Sam Greene (Staff)
We’d like to thank all the student presenters, their mentors, and parents who have faithfully supported these students in their project journeys this year. It’s a lot of work, but this level of quality is attained only with the help and cooperation of our larger Magnet community and village.
Thank you!
