This year’s Northville Central School District’s K-12 STEAM Fair featured projects focused on either inventions or experiments. Following weeks of research and hard work, students proudly presented their results to judges and classmates alike on Tuesday. Projects ranged from a hand-built reverse-osmosis machine to a study of the quality of bottled water vs. tap water to research on green energy, and much more. Prizes were awarded to the top three projects in each age group and category, but everyone who shared in the experience was a winner. Clockwise from top left, Northville students Fiona Kallen, Rylie Mutz and Ailene Donovan pose in front of their project featuring carpet-resistant slime; Landon Ginter watches his teammate Harry Downing apply a flame to prove that glass can conduct electricity as judges Ian Daigneault, Lanie Groff and John Daigneault observe; Seventh-grader Caitlin Clapper displays the reverse-osmosis machine she built for the NCS STEAM Fair; NCS students Macy Weaver and Kendra Stevens describe their project to judge Justin Frederick.
