Marymount School

Open to students in Classes VIII-XII. Enrollment is by semester.
The EnviSci club has two major areas of emphasis. The first is having fun with science. Working in pairs, club members develop chemical or physics activities to share with Lower and Middle School students. They also serve as student aides for some Lower School science classes. The second focus is on education and action strategies addressing such environmental issues as global warming, the destruction of rain forests, the plight of endangered species, and recycling. In the spring, the club hosts a speaker at the annual “Women In Science” luncheon and may host an assembly speaker in the field of science. Current issues in science and the environment are discussed in weekly meetings.
