Students race to finish line with solar carsBy KATIE MORGAN

The Sun

The tennis courts of Prince-ton High School became a race-track on May 17, ringed withmiddle school students cheer-ing, chanting and urging theirteams to victory as the after-noon sun poured over thecourse.

The teams, from area schools,were racing solar-powered carsbuilt from kits in the final event

of Solar Jam 2014. The event was organized by

Organizing Action on Sustain-ability in Schools, a non-profitconsortium of 19 Princeton-area schools led by PrincetonDay School Sustainability Coor-dinator Liz Cutler.

“The goal of OASIS is tomove forward with goals of sus-tainability in all of ourschools,” Cutler said. “In thepast, that’s mostly meant creat-ing programs for the adults in

those schools, but this was allabout getting kids excited aboutalternative energy.”

The schools that participatedin the first-ever Solar Jam werePrinceton Day School, Prince-ton Academy of the SacredHeart, Stuart Country DaySchool, The Cambridge School,Melvin H. Kreps Middle School,Riverside Elementary School,Princeton Junior School andHopewell Valley Central HighSchool.

“Some of the schools broughtmany teams, and some onlybrought one team,” Cutler said.“Hopewell Valley, for instance,represented our only highschool team this year. We hadtwo divisions of competition –one for passive solar projects,like solar ovens or solar-pow-ered balloons, and one for thesolar cars. We had all the teamsbuild their cars using the same

Report: High school among top 10 in stateBy NORA CARNEVALE

The Sun

U.S. News and World Reportnamed Princeton High Schoolamong the top 10 Best HighSchools of New Jersey for 2014.PHS is ranked 10 out of 398 highschools in the state and No. 216nationally.

The report includes data onmore than 19,400 public highschools in 50 states and the Dis-trict of Columbia. Additionally,PHS is one of only three schoolson the New Jersey Top 10 listwith an open-enrollment policy. The other seven schools allpractice a selective admissionpolicy.

Tim Quinn, president of theSchool Board, said being one of

only three open-enrollmentschools was a particular point ofpride.

“I think we are particularlyproud to be one of only threeopen enrollment high schools onthe list. We have a diverse stu-dent body with diverse experi-ences and learning styles, sowe’re very happy to receive thishonor,” he said.

He explained that by being anopen-enrollment school, theranking is made more meaning-ful, because “it is more difficultfor schools that serve all kids intheir community to post thesetest scores and match the othercriteria,” but offering enrollmentto everyone is not a call to actionfor PHS.

“We do things we would be

doing anyway. We serve our stu-dents, a diverse student body, be-cause that is what we do. We edu-cate. That is what our adminis-tration and faculty do. I don’t seeany school community that sitsdown and says ‘let’s offer thisprogram of studies because it’llget us a higher ranking,’” hesaid.

Quinn also explained thatwhile it is consistently an honorto be recognized and ranked, it isnot the driving force behind theadministration and faculty’s ef-forts.

“From the board’s perspective,we know kids at PHS are learn-ing in very meaningful ways, andwhile getting the ranking is theresidue of hard work that goesinto our schools, we do not be-

lieve that our school system isnecessarily driven by rankings,”he said.

The college-readiness indexportion of U.S. News’ rankingsystem determines Princeton’sGold Medal status. Only 500schools in the country achievedgold status, which is based on thepercentage of seniors in the 2011-2012 academic year who took andpassed Advanced Placementexams.

Quinn said the board believesin ensuring access to quality in-struction and making sure stu-dents have the ability to take ac-celerated and AP courses.

“Access to AP courses is defi-nitely something that our highschool puts a premium on,” hesaid. “It is sort of blocking and

tackling, putting good people andqualified, superior instructors infront of motivated students,” hesaid.

Quinn also acknowledged thatnot every district is able to pro-vide the depth of curriculumPHS offers.

“Giving both faculty and students the tools to do what theyneed to do to their highest potential is our priority. Having arich curriculum that goes beyond the basics and has multi-ple opportunities for learning inthe arts, and opportunities forhigher-level creative thinking.Those are the things that theboard sees being offered day inand day out at PHS that reflectthe values of the community,” hesaid.

Wheels Rodeo promotes safety throughout communityBy NORA CARNEVALE

The Sun

Princeton children participat-ed in a rodeo on Saturday, May 17.However, there was no bull ridingor cattle roping. Instead, theevent was open to bicycles, tricy-cles, skateboards androllerblades.

Sponsored by the Princeton Po-lice Department, Mayors Well-ness Campaign, Princeton Recre-ation Department, Greater Mer-cer TMA and Pedestrian and Bi-cycle Advisory Committee ofPrinceton, the fourth annualWheels Rodeo sought to promotesafety throughout the community.

“The event went very, verywell. We estimated that therewere more than 100 kids present,and it seems to be growing everyyear,” Sgt. Steven Riccitello saidof the event, which was held inthe municipal parking lot at 400Witherspoon St. He added thatgetting lucky with a beautiful,sunny 70-degree day did not hurteither.

Riccitello said the event beganfour years ago with the Depart-ment of Human Services and thepolice department collaboratingto create an event that was enjoy-

able for the children of Princeton,but also promoted safety.

The first 100 children to attendwere promised free bicycle hel-

mets, and Riccitello estimatedthat “pretty much every child gota bike helmet that was in atten-dance.” He said the children were

very excited about the helmets,and that is encouraging.

In addition to promoting theuse of helmets and following safe-

ty rules of the road, another goalof the police department’s was toencourage children to view policeofficers as “people who are thereto care for you.” A popular activi-ty is the bicycle obstacle course,set up with cones, that Riccitellosaid “gives the kids a chance tobecome on a friendly basis withthe officers while completing thecourse.”

Riccitello said these events areimportant to the community tofoster a positive relationship withthe police department, to providevaluable education and to have agood time.

“It brings everybody together.It brings every background intown together into one locationand it’s just fun. You have vendorsthere, free food and plus it justpromotes good safety habits and agood sense of community. It pro-motes the idea that police arethere to look out for you, and kidsget to learn the rules of biking.It’s just a great day,” he said.

The next big event hosted bythe department is the NationalNight Out. It is set to be held inearly August and will bring thecommunity together for food, funand games at the CommunityPark Pool.

kit, but there were so many differ-ent outcomes. There was an engi-neering side to it that turned outterrifically.”

The solar car races were heldin heats throughout the after-noon, with three cars racing at atime on lanes divided by fishingline. Students had a few minutesto prepare their cars for the race,and then held sheets of cardboardover the solar panel until the racebegan. Some cars zipped alongthe fishing line, while othersrolled slowly away from the start.Teams whose cars did not suc-ceed began making plans for ad-justments to next year’s entries.

Cutler said she expects nextyear’s Solar Jam to multiply insize and attendance.

“This year we only had onerace course, and next year we’ll

definitely have multiple courses,”Cutler said. “We’ll also do a betterjob of reaching out earlier to getmore schools involved.”

Solar Jam 2014 was sponsoredby PSE&G, and local eateriessuch as The Bent Spoon donatedrefreshments.

“That was really the most help-ful thing,” Cutler said. “It’s reallyimportant that PSE&G sponsoredit, because everyone is strappedfor cash, and it’s one less reasonschools have not to do it. PSE&Gpaid for every kid to be here, andthat sponsorship was really won-derful. And the Bent Spoon gaveus all this ice cream for the kids –it was just really a communityevent.”

Cutler said her favorite part ofSolar Jam 2014 was watching stu-dents from public and private, ele-mentary and middle schools in-teracting and comparing theirsolar projects and cars.

“I think it’s a metaphor,” Cut-ler said. “It’s basically saying,‘let’s get rid of all these artificialdivisions.’ If we’re going to solvethe issues around climate change,we all have to work together. Kidscan work together across schoolboundaries, across grade levelsand across divisions to make ourworld and our future more sus-tainable.”

in our opinion

Officials doing a good jobRaises should be approved for council positions, not councilmembers


Halfway through Princeton’ssecond year as a consolidatedmunicipality, it can be said

with certainty that the town’s electedofficials are doing a good job. They arealso doing a big job, and one theyought to be well compensated for.

The question of a raise for themayor and councilmembers, firstasked in 2013, has come up again,sparking division on the dais. Thereare two sides to every argument, andin this case, both arguments are noble.Half of the council is opposed to araise, because they feel obligated tofulfill the promises of the consolida-tion reports, which put the new coun-cil salaries on par with the former bor-ough councilmembers’.

The other half thinks a raise is notonly desirable, but necessary; resi-dents who are not independentlywealthy should be able to afford tohold office in Princeton.

What makes the issue a controver-sial one is not the numbers. The pro-posed alteration to a single budget lineitem would be $19,750 – an increasethat represents approximately .0003

percent of the total municipal budget– but this tiny molehill has quickly be-come a mountain.

The controversy stems from the factthat the councilmembers are com-pelled to discuss and decide their ownsalaries. It’s awkward.

However complicated the discus-sion, the solution is simple. We musttake the individuals out of the equa-tion and look at the big picture.

Yes, the current councilmembersand mayor made many promises totheir constituents based on the consol-idation reports and recommendations.But all those small assurances add upto the biggest pledge of all; they prom-ised to unite two towns, their laws, of-fices and residents, and to make a new,better place to live.

According to data from the most re-cent census, 36 percent of Princeton’sresidents have an annual income over$125,000. These are the town’s inde-pendently wealthy, and most of thecurrent members of council, whilethey may not be at the top of thatgroup, reside somewhere in the ball-park. They are the first to admit they

don’t really need the money. But outside the ballpark, way out on

the far end of the parking lot, are the25 percent of Princeton residentswhose annual income is less than$35,000. That’s a quarter of the town’spopulation that could likely not affordto hold office. That’s a quarter ofPrinceton’s residents who are unlikelyto be represented by a voice on thedais.

That’s an enormous crevasse onMount Democracy.

It was Council President BernieMiller who first cautioned Princetonagainst becoming “A Tale of TwoCities.”

The best and most immediate way toavoid that fate for Princeton is to ap-prove a raise, not for the current coun-cil members, but for their positions.The raises can start at the next elec-tion, or even the one after that. Itwould mean setting the stage for a mu-nicipal government that representsthe economic diversity of its resi-dents. It would mean truly followingthrough on the biggest promise of con-solidation.

La Gloire du Roi: Music from the Court ofthe Sun King” with soprano Rebecca Mari-man on May 28 at 8 p.m. in the GambrellRoom, Miller Chapel at Princeton Theolog-ical Seminary.

The young, dynamic, Washington, D.C.-based baroque music trio Corda Novatakes audiences on a journey to late 17thcentury France, where Louis XIV presided

over a sumptuous court. Under his patron-age, composers such as Couperin, Lully,Charpentier and Marais created a quintes-sentially French musical idiom which in-fluenced composers across Europe in thecentury to follow.

Corda Nova is joined by Princeton localsoprano Rebecca Mariman for this uniqueprogram, which highlights the richness ofboth instrumental and vocal music of the

French Baroque period. Rebecca Marimanperforms a broad spectrum of repertoire,from Baroque oratorio and opera to con-temporary works. She is a member of theearly-music ensemble, Fuma Sacra, and ofthe Carmel Bach Festival Chorale.

Corda Nova consists of Edmond Chan,baroque violin¸ Amy Domingues, viola dagamba and baroque cello, and AnthonyHarvey, theorbo.

Educated at The MastersSchool in Dobbs Ferry, NY andthen Connecticut College forWomen in New London, Bordendeveloped a life-long interest inthe spoken word. She majored inEnglish literature, worked as aprofessional actress in the 1950s,as a speech pathologist in the1960s, and spent the rest of herworking life as professor ofSpeech Science, first at City Uni-

versity of New York and then atTemple University in Philadel-phia.

As an actress, she was residentingenue at Ivoryton, Conn., andSt. Petersburg, Fla., toured thecountry playing in Noel Coward’s“Hay Fever” with Miriam Hop-kins, acted in live television dra-mas in New York, and in 1955originated the part of Miep in theBroadway production of “TheDiary of Anne Frank.” In thesame year, she married John Bor-den. She left the theatre when shebecame pregnant with the first oftheir four children.

Upon completion of a master’sdegree in speech pathology at Co-lumbia’s Teachers College, sheworked during the 1960s withchildren and adults with speechand language problems at St.Francis Hospital in Trenton, inpublic schools in MontgomeryTownship and Princeton, and inprivate practice. During the sameperiod, she and her husband wereraising a family in Princeton andhad become active in the Prince-ton Quaker Meeting.

Receiving a Ph.D. in speech sci-ence from City University of NewYork in 1972, Borden spent the

next two decades as a research as-sociate at Haskins Laboratoriesin New Haven conducting re-search on the physiology andacoustics of normal and abnor-mal speech, and teaching experi-mental phonetics to undergradu-ate and graduate students atCUNY and Temple University.She published 30 research papersin journals such as Brain andLanguage, Journal of Speech andHearing Research, and Journal ofPhonetics.

She also

hosted a radio interview and call-in show on WRTI called “Op-tions,” which dealt with contro-versial subjects such asapartheid, the Cold War andAIDS.

After her retirement from Tem-ple and Haskins, she spent thenext 10 years helping PrincetonFriends School, a Quaker elemen-tary school, build a schoolhouse.She served for two terms as presi-dent of the Board of Trustees andchaired its first capital campaign.Her love of the spoken word wasmaintained by participation in aninformal play reading group andin an unusual literature readinggroup, facetiously called “DeepThink,” which has been meetingin Princeton for more than 50years to read aloud.

Next phase of Arts and Transitconstruction planned for June 4

By KATIE MORGANThe Sun

Princeton University willbegin the next phase of construc-tion on the Arts and TransitNeighborhood on June 4, the dayafter the school’s commencementceremonies.

Kristin Appelget, director ofcommunity and regional affairsfor the university, gave an updateon the project at the May 12Princeton Council meeting.

“As promised, we’re coming be-fore you each time we have a mile-stone for the project,” Appelgettold Council. “We wanted to giveyou an update tonight about workthat you will start to see on June4. We’ll be getting started on thisnext phase of work in earnest.”

Appelget said this phase of the$300 million project is expected tolast until mid-July.

“We’ll be working rapidlythrough this phase,” Appelgetsaid. “It entails the closure ofUniversity Place to enable theproject team to redo the cross-walk area between the BerlindTheatre and the North Stationbuilding.”

Appelget said the crosswalk re-placement would require hard-scaping work that will impact ve-hicular and pedestrian routes.The University Place Wawa andthe adjacent parking lot will stillbe accessible by car, but trafficwill not be able to loop around the

parking lot and onto UniversityPlace.

“The temporary traffic lightthat was in use last summer dur-ing the roundabout constructionwill be taken down and installedat the intersection of CollegeRoad and Alexander Street,” Ap-pelget said. “That will help withthe fact that traffic will be flowingup Alexander Street. We plan toput ‘truck route’ and ‘DowntownPrinceton’ signs up directing peo-ple back up University Place, sothey’ll know to head that direc-tion.”

Appelget said there would be aminimal impact on pedestrianwalkways due to the closures.

“You will not be able to walkthrough the area between theBerlind Theatre and the NorthStation building,” Appelget said.“But you will be able to walk inbetween the two former stationbuildings, which will allow you tocome down toward the Wawa orback to Alexander Street.”

Some parking spaces will alsobe temporarily removed orblocked to accommodate the con-struction.

“The majority of the long-termmeter parking that exists south ofCollege Road on University Placewill remain,” Appelget said.“About a dozen of the spaces atthe very end will be [blocked] be-cause we need to leave space forsomeone to turn around. We alsoneed space for the construction

vehicles to come in.” Several additional spaces will

be temporarily removed on thenorth side of College Road tomake room for the Tiger Paw andTiger Transit bus stop, which willbe temporarily relocated fromUniversity Place to College Road,across from McCarter Theatre.

Appelget thanked the govern-ing body and municipal staff fortheir assistance in getting infor-mation about road and walkwayclosures to the community.

“This is all posted on the uni-versity website, and we’ll be send-ing out email alerts a few days be-fore we begin construction,” Ap-pelget said. “We’ll share it withthe clerk’s office as well. We reallyappreciate coordinating with thestaff to get the information out tothe community so they can makeadjustments to their plans andschedules as necessary.”

H. Patricia TwitchellMay 13, 2014

H. Patricia “Tricia” Twitchellpassed away on May 13 at Stone-bridge in Montgomery, where shehad been a resident for nearly 10years.

Tricia was born in London,England in 1934, the daughter ofMarian and H. KenastonTwitchell and granddaughter ofSen. H. Alexander Smith andHelen Dominick Smith.

Her family returned to theUnited States in 1939 and Tricia

graduatedfrom DanaHall School inWellesley,Massachu-setts in 1953.Shortly aftergraduating,she based her-self in Europeand became astaff memberof Moral Re-Armament, Inc.,which has been credited withplaying a significant role in thereconciliation of Germany andFrance in the years followingWorld War II.

In the early 1970s, Tricia settledin Princeton, where she workedat Princeton University's Fire-stone Library for 28 years, retir-ing in 1999. Among many friendsmade during her time at Firestone were several studentworkers who marked their close friendship with Tricia byhaving her named an honorarymember of their Princeton Classof 1981.

Tricia was a member of theNassau Presbyterian Churchwhere she served as a deacon andcommitted volunteer. For manyyears she was a devoted weeklyvolunteer with Recording for theBlind (now Learning Ally), care-fully monitoring the recordingequipment while her partner vol-unteers read. She was a memberof the Colonial Dames of Ameri-ca, whose focus and programscomplemented her life-long inter-est in history.

Tricia is remembered as some-

one who brought a spark to herfamily life, and someone who hada definite opinion on nearly everysubject. She will be rememberedfor her great sense of humor, herwarmth and genuine interest inother people, her humanity, perse-verance and stoicism, her gen-erosity, her open minded willing-ness to understand and em-pathize, and her positive attitudetoward life. She had a large circleof friends and family who will re-member her fondly and with the"twinkle in her eye" that somarked her personality.

Tricia will be buried alongsideher parents and grandparents atthe Princeton Cemetery. She issurvived by her brother H. Kenas-ton Twitchell, Jr. and sister AnneT. Wishard, Ken's wife Toby Hei-denreich and Anne's husbandVan, as well as a host of belovednieces and nephews: Van andDiana, Eric and Julie, Maggie,Alex and Andrew.

Her family expresses theirgratitude to Tricia's close friendsPat Gibney and Carol MacAdam,who tirelessly gave love, assis-tance and companionshipthrough Tricia's final years. Addi-tionally, the family thanks thestaffs of Stonebridge and thePrinceton HomeCare Hospice,who brought Tricia comfort inher final days.

A memorial service will beheld at the Nassau PresbyterianChurch at 11 a.m. on June 6.

In lieu of flowers, donationsmay be made in Tricia's name tothe Crisis Ministry of MercerCounty.

In danger of closing, officials stepin, save Children’s Home Society

By NORA CARNEVALEThe Sun

The Children’s Home Societyof New Jersey’s Princeton clinicwas in danger of closing on May16, until local officials decided tostep in and save what PrincetonHealth Officer Jeffrey Grossercalled “vital services.”

Grosser, along with ElisaNeira, executive director ofPrinceton’s Human Services De-partment, and former interimhealth officer Bob Hary put to-gether an action plan to increaseawareness of the clinic and itsservices.

The CHS of NJ receives statefunding for the Women, Infantsand Children program; and thePrinceton satellite office dispers-es the funding and holds clinicsfor residents who meet the in-come eligibility requirements toreceive assistance. Grosser saidthe use has been steadily declin-ing since its peak year of 2010.

WIC services provide a form ofhealth care, nutritional counsel-ing, lactation consultants and nu-tritionists to pregnant mothers,or mothers who have already de-livered.

“Prior to my taking over ashealth officer in early April, I re-ceived an email blast saying theCHS was going to consolidate ef-

forts and push toward Trentonwhere more families are in-volved,” he said.

Hary and Neira shared theirplan to increase communityawareness with Grosser, who ex-plained the four parts, which in-cluded assessing the current uti-lization of services, promotingthe program at key places in thecommunity such as schools, theYWCA, the library and churches,maintaining communicationwith the hospital to ensure moth-ers delivering babies know assis-tance is available and finally whatGrosser called an “advertisingspree.” He reported taking to thestreets and handing out fliers allaround town and making sure thecouncil and Board of Healthcould get the word out.

Grosser said a primary reasonfor the decline in WIC use was achanging community.

“If the community changesand you don’t keep advertising,you can lose that buzz,” he said.

As a result of the communityawareness campaign, the WICclinics will be continued thoughDecember at the 400 WitherspoonSt. location.

“We have pledged that this isone of our top priorities goingforward. It has really made thehealth department and humanservices work together,” Grosser

said. The long-term plan is a re-

assessment of the numbers inlate summer or early fall to re-work the action plan. Grossersaid depending on the continuedimprovement, he hopes to see thediscussion of an additional clinic.

“There is such a diverse com-munity here, and I really believethat WIC is going to stay becausepeople need it. I wish that WICcould be everywhere, it is such avaluable thing to have,” he said.

Grosser said he is most proudthat everyone in the Princetoncommunity rallies behind a goodcause.

Students ride for inaugural Tour de PASHBy KATIE MORGAN

The Sun

Students at Princeton Acade-my of the Sacred Heart took totwo wheels on May 14 for the in-augural Tour de PASH mountainbike race.

Approximately 25 PASH stu-dents and teachers brought theirbikes to school and raced in heatsdivided by fifth, sixth, seventhand eighth grades. The Tour cul-minated in a “Race of Champi-ons,” which included the winnersof the previous heats.

Princeton Academy scienceteacher Brent Deisher, an avid bi-cyclist and racer, coordinated theevent.

“I’m a former racer and a for-mer San Francisco bike messen-ger,” Deisher said. “Last year Irode Mount Washington, a gruel-ing 7.6 mile uphill ride. This yearI’m doing the Longest Day Ride,206 miles from High Point to CapeMay – the entire length of thestate – in one day. I love cycling.”

Deisher is involved with An-chor House, a Princeton-basednonprofit that works to help run-away or abused teenagers. An-chor House hosts an annual 500-mile bike ride to support the or-ganization.

“The director of Anchor Housesaid she was looking for outside-the-box fundraising ideas,” Deish-er said. “I thought a race at PASHwould be a great way to bring to-

gether cycling, wellness andfundraising.”

Deisher said he put a lot ofthought and time into his propos-al for the event. He designed therace course using different partsof the campus.

“I was there that morning at7:30 to help kids unload theirbikes,” Deisher said. “I’m also thecross country coach, and we have

a two-mile cross country courseon campus. I used part of that,and part of the recess field tomake a .4-mile course for the Tourde PASH.”

Deisher said he spoke to themiddle school students, andshowed them a video about thework Anchor House does forteens in need. The students, whowear uniforms each day, were

given the opportunity to donate$3 for the privilege of “dressingdown” on May 14. For an addi-tional $7, they were entered in theTour de PASH.

“One of our goals here at theschool is ‘social awareness whichimpels to action,’” Deisher said.“In the end, we raised $725 for An-chor House.”

Deisher said the students who

took part in the race had a lot offun, and he expects the Tour dePASH to become an annual event.

“One of the boys had so muchfun he said he thought we shoulddo it twice a year,” Deisher said.“I think once a year is good fornow, but I think it will be a reallygreat annual event. I think morepeople are going to come nextyear, and it will grow.”

Littlebrook schools hosts annual Science ExpoBy NORA CARNEVALE

The Sun

On May 22, the halls at Little-brook Elementary School wereabuzz with excitement. Studentswere asking each other if theyhad seen the bees yet, or whetherthey got to help blow giant bub-bles. They were able to experi-ence science through many differ-ent presentations, with topicsranging from bees to rockets, andmany exhibits were even present-ed by their parents. Around everycorner there was something newto be discovered, from chickens inthe courtyard to a horseshoe crabin class.

The Science Expo is in its fifthyear, and was created by Little-brook parents Brigitte Delaneyand Ann Marciano who ran theevent for four years in conjunc-tion with science teacher MarthaFriend. After their childrenmoved on from Littlebrook,Jenny Ludmer now coordinatesthe event.

“The whole idea is to give thekids in school exposure to sci-ence. They’re not taking notes,they’re not being tested or askedto memorize anything. They’rejust getting exposed to the excit-ing aspects of science,” Ludmersaid.

Throughout the day, the entireschool rotates every 20 minutesthrough more than 35 hands-onstations that are presented prima-

rily by school parents. Among theparents presenting are professorsat Princeton University, the Insti-tute for Advanced Studies, Rut-gers University, the University ofthe Sciences and more. Addition-ally, parent presenters are execu-tives at companies such as Googleand Lockheed Martin. The sci-ence disciplines represented in-clude chemistry, biology, physics,engineering, genetics, genomics,entomology and zoology.

Some of the presentationsranged from “Computer ScienceUnplugged: Let’s pretend to be in-side a computer,” to “Can you feelthe beat? An overview of theheart, circulatory system andkeeping it all in sync.”

While the majority of presen-ters are parents, Ludmer ex-plained that about one-third ofpresenters are community mem-bers.

“Littlebrook has a lot ofphysics, chemistry and math par-ents, so we tend to bring in com-munity members that are morefocused on life sciences as well,”she said.

Ludmer said she was excited totake on the role of coordinator be-cause many students say that it istheir favorite day of the year.Some parents were even featuredin a seven-minute “preview”movie that was shown to studentsprior to the event, which hadeveryone excited.

In addition to the children’s ex-

citement, Ludmer said parentpresenters are equally enthusias-tic.

“The thing that has amazed methe most about the event is theparents’ enthusiasm. When plan-ning the schedule, which is a bigproduction, parents and commu-nity members are so eager to helpout and get involved. They arevolunteering their time for theday, but before it they are reallygreat at staying in touch and giv-ing us all the information weneed,” she said.

Ludmer explained that the goalof the Science Expo is not only tohave a fun and exciting day, butalso to use science to instill stu-dents with a lasting sense of won-der.

“If we want kids to study sci-ence and any STEM study, thenwe need to inspire them and alsoshow them the later applicationsin life; careers and what sciencecan do for our society,” she said.
