Florham Park is proud to announce that we have partnered with the Fair for Emergent Researchers (FER), to provide 46 Florham Park students from fifth to eighth grade to participate in a virtual science fair. Students from Maryland, New York, and New Jersey are participating in the program that has partnered with three different universities, including Drew University and Columbia University. Students are exploring their own research interests through the scientific method. Two Florham Park teachers, David Letchinger and Erin Esteves, will assist the students as they have introductory sessions with the undergraduate student mentors, complete 3 remote sessions where they will meet students across MD, NY, and NJ, and present their experiments to faculty and industry judges in April for a chance to win up to $500.
