Fwd: AIS: 2014-15 Projects and Sessions



Hello All, 

It has been a wonderful year of many good sessions and the Parent's Day event was a huge success (I am sure the kids enjoyed the party the most!). 

This year we had over 40+ sessions, thanks to relentless effort on Raj's part in recruiting parent volunteers and others teachers! The list of all presentations is updated in the blog: Presentations

This year, we had about 100 students who submitted their Parents Day projects, including the ones that presented last week at LM. The list is available at: Parents Day Presentations

I also want to thank you all for your generosity and for the thoughtful gift.

Looking forward to a great event for the kids next Saturday at NIST.

Thanks,
Krishna

Session Feb 28th

Folks

 

We have a great program for you all this Saturday.

 

We have one or two AIS assistants presenting for 30 minutes.

 

We have the following children making their Lockheed Martin Parent's Day presentations.

 

Then we have a party for you organized by Sai and Purvi.

 

Please come early.

 

Because Ryan Guernsey has other things to do ( in addition to being a support person for his siblings) he will be making an early presentation around 8:50 AM. His topic is: ""Are Lights in a Parallel Circuit Brighter than in a Series Circuit?"" Sounds like an exciting topic.
