At Least 12 More Judges Needed for Inquiry Expo!
Inquiry Expo is scheduled for Thursday March 6th. This is a fantastic event showcasing the creative and insightful projects of BMES students! To make this event a success, we are looking for enthusiastic volunteers to serve as judges.
As a judge, you will have the opportunity to engage with students, evaluate their projects, and provide valuable feedback on their inquiries. Your participation will help inspire and guide the next generation of thinkers, researchers, and problem-solvers! You do NOT need to be an expert in any field, we will provide the rubrics you will need!
If you're interested in volunteering as a judge, please click on the link and sign up for your category of choice: https://signup.com/go/uAxismf
Please contact Claudia Provine claudiaprovine@gmail.com if you need to make any changes to your sign up.

Adolescent RISE with Nicholas Thompson, Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Adolescent RISE is a presentation that takes a fun and informative look at the developmental period of adolescence (ages 10-25). It includes debunking myths about adolescence, understanding the four qualities of adolescence (risk taking, identity formation, social reorientation, and emotional intensity), and learning about the tweenage brain. With this foundation established, ways to better support our kids will be discussed.
Please register online to assist with planning purposes.
