INDIAN ROCKS CHRISTIAN SCHOOL: Our first summer Science Fair Prep Camp led by Dr. Mark Oleksak and Tracy Springman was a huge success!

Indian Rocks Christian School issued the following announcement on Jul 18.

Our first summer Science Fair Prep Camp led by Dr. Mark Oleksak and Tracy Springman was a huge success! 

Students practiced the scientific process by testing the effects of caffeine on Daphnia and walked through the engineering steps by building prosthetic lower limbs. Mentors helped students develop solutions to current problems relating to our community with disabilities.  

On the final day of camp, they presented their initial solutions, which will be further developed and tested during the new school year. Ultimately, they will be  presented at the IRCS Science and Engineering Fair in January. Our students did an incredible job during their week at camp. We are very proud of them!

IRCS would like to thank our camp mentors: Dr. Mark Oleksak, Erinn Mounts, Brad Clough, Alisia Odums, Marc Johlic, and Matt Kaercher. IRCS is blessed by each of these amazing volunteers who gave their time and thoughtful care to our students.
