STEP Old Westbury

Thank you to our STEP alum Ms. Samantha Melgar for coming back to be our Keynote speaker for our end of year celebration

This past Saturday, our Living Environment students delved into Evolution. They explored the adaptation of finches' beaks on the Galapagos, simulating natural selection based on varying food sources.

A special thank you to our Assistant Dean of School of Arts and Sciences for taking the time to talk to our middle school students about math in the real world with a fun workshop on Math in Baking.

Today our research students made the trek to the Sigma Xi research conference in Danbury Connecticut! Here they presented their projects, interacted with STEM professionals, and even took home some awards 🤭 We are extremely proud of our students and can’t wait for what’s in store for them in the future‼️
