2:58 Record Number of Northville STEAM Fair Participants Featured

The 8th annual Northville STEAM Fair was held on Wednesday, April 27, 2022, inside Northville High School's gym.

"STEAM Fair is an opportunity for any student in grades Kindergarten thru 12th to come up with a project, something that inspires them relating to STEAM, in any of the aspects: Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Math. And they can follow the Olympic theme of the year, they can choose from something else but really just have a passion to create, invent and share their love for that with everybody else," explained Kim Chenoweth, elementary STEAM teacher at NPS.

"We've never done anything like this and we wanted to go outside of our comfort zone and try something new that we've never done before," said Halima Mirza, 4th grader at Thornton Creek Elementary. "And we knew that not many people weren't doing this at our school so we wanted to try to do something that we haven't done before and we wanted to be more creative," explained Daniella Maroun, 4th grader at Thornton Creek Elementary.

"So my project was, I made like an app on my virtual reality headset which allowed you to visit the high school, it was a model of the high school so you can walk around and go inside the gym, the swimming pool or in the classrooms to walk around and see things," said Phillip Zhavoronkov, 10th grader at NHS.

"I heard that on an average year maybe about 70-80 presentations or projects are made and this year there's over 130 and I look around and there's so many elementary students here and it's just such an awesome, proud "momma moment" that there's so many kids that were really inspired by our brand new STEAM class this year to continue their excitement by having a project here. So it's been really fun to walk around and see all the kids and their projects," said Chenoweth.

"It's cool because it's every single grade together, there's kids from my grade, there's seniors here like my friends, and then there's little kids in elementary school that were probably not even born when I was in elementary school so it's interesting to see everyone come together for a science fair for our community," said Zhavoronkov.

This event was a partnership between Northville Public Schools and Northville Educational Foundation, with several sponsors. Thank you!
