RIS Young Scientists in Hanyang University

Last weekend our young scientists went to HANYANG UNIVERSITY in Seoul for the Olympiad preparation sessions. We met some Researchers and assistants and had some experiments there.

It  was a fantastic trip for the RIS teams to continue their path to the Olympiads.

Hot off the Press!

This quarter in the Grade 8 Language Arts class , Ms. Sylvia Lee and the students focused on the ESLR related to understanding and building the community around us.  They investigated and studied various means of communication that occur in communities resulting in the very first RIS student newspaper.  The 8th grade class put forth great dedication and effort towards this project.  Please enjoy and stay tuned for future editions!
