In Northeastern News

Hello! I hope that everyone has been enjoying the warm weather. Today there was an article on Northeastern University's home page (www.neu.edu) about this year's ExxonMobil Bernard Harris Summer Science Camp! The article discusses the bottle rocket launch that took place on Friday, July 16th during our Media Day with Dr. Benard A. Harris Jr. There are even a few quotes from some of the campers on the winning team. The link is: http://www.northeastern.edu/news/stories/2010/07/bottlerockets.html. Enjoy!

GRADUATION!!!!!



Hello Families and Friends of EMBHSSC,

We are very sad to announce that camp has finally come to an end. On Friday July 23, 2010 our campers graduated! While everyone was very excited to see the campers share all that they've learned over the past two weeks, our staff here at STEM was also very sad to see the campers leave. The campers were delightful. As everyone signed yearbooks and shared email addresses the staff watched on proud that they've completed the task: A SUCCESSFUL SUMMER CAMP EXPERIENCE FOR ALL!

We'll miss you all and hope to see you all for our year round check- ins!

We'll be uploading the step performance for you all to see soon! It was very cool!
