In this forum we, the greater Highland Falls/Fort Montgomery family, will have a unique opportunity to interact and discuss all things science, happening worldwide or in our own community. I encourage students (required at times:), parents, and educators to participate and contribute. This is an open platform for all so let's share, communicate, and learn, from each other!

Earth Day April 22, 2016 by Isabella Vanzetta
Earth Day is coming up very soon! In honor of Earth Day on April 22nd, HFIS is asking everyone to shut off the classroom lights and power down any “unused” electronics on the 21st. By turning off our lights for just one hour, we are able to keep two pounds of pollutants out of our environment! Let’s celebrate Earth Day and conserve some energy!
Pop! Time to create the biggest bubble! by Isabel Lima
Students in the 7th grade must create a hypothesis out of the question, “Which instrument/tool will make the biggest bubble?”.Then, test it out in an experiment! The soap concoction is Mr.K’s job, the students must work on creating a creative way to blow a bubble and see who’s is the biggest and which instrument/tool is most effective. The catch is students must make the instrument at home and bring it into school on Thursday, April 21. The class will go outside and test each hypothesis. We will then see what will make the biggest bubble!
