Normandin's Week in Review

Normandin Students Present at Stonehill College

On Thursday, April 17th, seven of our dedicated and hard working Normandin students represented our 21st Century program at Stonehill College during the Southeast Regional Conference.  Aliana Liz Tavares HR 224, Ema Abi-Younes HR 321, Sammy Abi-Younes HR 213, Damian Ramos HR 313, Delilah Oliveira HR 215, Kenneth Roark HR 129, and Quinten Simas HR 270, all did a fantastic job presenting two of our current 21st Century Program offerings to a very full auditorium at Stonehill. 

Our students enrolled in the Rube Goldberg club with Mr. DiStefano successfully created a very complicated machine with the objective of completing the “simple” task of raising a flag.  This demonstration was shown to the large crowd at Stonehill College.  Students then did a great job describing the process and persistence involved in the creation of their machine and were able to answer several questions from those in attendance.

Our Discovering Justice students in Mr. Rosen’s program session have been working with a group of volunteer attorneys each week in preparation for their presentation before an Appellate Panel of Judges at Bristol Superior Court on Thursday, May 15th.  Students will use legal precedent to argue for their client’s position in a Fourth Amendment Constitutional law case and they will present their oral arguments in front of actual judges.  This group of students did an outstanding job effectively describing the objectives of their program and the importance of after school programming.

Our Normandin students received several compliments from other district coordinators as well as the event organizer.  We are all very proud of their efforts.  Thank you Mr. Martins for all your efforts!
