"Smiling is contagious" scientific project by Dolores Baca of Barstow Intermediate School.
Today, I had the opportunity to judge the BUSD Science Fair. I was tasked to select two projects worthy of awards.
There is no criteria for the "Mayor's Award", so I took my time and evaluated over 100 science projects. I made a decision to select a unique project, that would hopefully inspire other students.
"Smiling is Contagious" by Dolores Baca caught my eye and her oral presentation impressed me. She took the time to evaluate over 100 people at various locations, such as Tanger, Stater Brothers, Barstow Community Hospital and Wal-Mart. Yes, more people smiled.
As a board member for the Mojave Desert Quality Air Management District, I was asked to represent MEEC(Mojave Education Environmental Consortium) I selected an environmental project "Going Green" by Alyssa Seelig and Emma Hernandez, both were awarded a big blue ribbon and a $100.00 SAVINGS BOND.
