EATON’S SCIENCE FAIR 2018 Eaton’s Annual Science Fair Night was held on Thursday, April 26, 2018 and it was a resounding success! It was amazing to watch our budding scientists proudly present their experiments to the many visitors who attended this event. Board member Liang Chao visited the Science Fair and we are sure she was impressed with how knowledgeable and articulate the little scientists were! Thank you Board Member Liang Chao for stopping by and encouraging our students. A very special thank you goes out to Lavanya Kurella, our Science Fair Coordinator, and her wonderful team of parents who volunteered to help organize, set up and successfully run this event!
