Maria Regina High School in Hartsdale recently held its first-ever Science Fair, showcasing 274 scientific topics explored by the students at the all-girls Catholic high school. The two-day exhibition took place at the school’s iconic Hartsdale campus and featured presentations that demonstrated the students’ critical thinking, innovation, and intellectual curiosity.
The success of the inaugural Science Fair has demonstrated the students’ capabilities and their potential in the scientific community. Principal Maria Carozza-McCaffrey (’99) congratulated the winners and participants for their hard work and amazing achievements, emphasizing the students’ interest and talent in the sciences. Reena Varna (P’17), chairperson of Maria Regina’s Science Department, highlighted the students’ dedication to their projects and their ability to think like scientists, asking relevant questions, researching, and experimenting to present their findings.
At Maria Regina, the goal is to create a growth mindset among students, and events like the Science Fair are a step in that direction. By promoting critical thinking, curiosity, and innovation in the sciences, the school aims to inspire and empower young women to pursue careers in STEM fields. The underrepresentation of women in STEM fields is an issue that Reena Varna (P’17) recognizes as important. She encouraged girls’ interest in math and science by acknowledging its importance in shaping future leaders.
