I am a 4th grade teacher at Encinal School in Atherton and see first hand how this amazing science night creates community! It is spear headed by our fantastic PTO and supported by our administration and teachers. I urged my class to participate and have nearly every student in a group, eagerly preparing display boards that show the scientific process, their hypothesis, the steps taken in their investigation and their results. Parents are supporting their children as they dig deeper to find out the why of what their results show. I am so excited to attend this Friday's Science Night!
