Hayes Science Fair 2025!

What an amazing community event

What an incredible day we had at our 6th Annual Science Fair on Saturday March 1st! A huge congratulations to all of our students for their hard work, creativity, and inspiring ideas - their dedication and enthusiasm truly shined and made it onto Brookline News!

We invite you to enjoy this year's impressive projects and judges' comments here: Hayes Science Fair 2025 Projects.

We were also treated to an extraordinary visit in our cafeteria by a special whale, Salt, and her incredible marine-scientist companions! A heartfelt thank you to the NOAA team for sharing their expertise and passion with our students. It was truly a magical experience!

A huge thank you to all the parents, teachers, administrators, judges, and administrators who helped make this event possible - your support, encouragement, and dedication make our Hayes community so special.

And a special thank-you to our veteran Science Fair Committee who year after year make the magic happen: Daryl Donatelli (Committee lead); Jon Bass (judge coordinator); Yen-Lin Chen (NOAA visit organizer and workshop leader); Lisa Yuen Rhoads (t-shirts); Mr. Patel (student outreach); Lisa Kang and Theodora Konetsovska (middle-school field trip); Saeed Amal (website).

SY24-25 Hopes and dreams wall

We revived an old PTO tradition - the wall of hopes and dreams for the new school year! For four months, students, parents and staff wrote inspiring, funny, heartwarming messages. It was great to see the wall grow - THANK YOU to the 90+ contributors for their inspiration and heartfelt wishes!

Enjoy them all here: https://www.hayespto.org/hopedream
