The "Future" of the YHS Science Research Program
is very, very bright as the 26 Sophomores (1st year students)
presented their upcoming research projects
at the
White Plains Invitational Science Fair
Approximately 200, 1st year research students from 13 schools participated.

Awards were given to the top 3 in each category.
To be equitable, the larger categories,
(Med./Health, BioChem, Behavior)
were divided up so that there were no more than 12 people in any category.
