Cool Science Competition Honorees
In memory of our late colleague David, we are honored to name this year's David Lustick Winner. The David Lustick Winner is someone who embodies the youthful and optimistic spirit of the Cool Science program.
Congrats to Angele, a 10th grader from New Bedford, the Massachusetts David Lustick Winner!
Congrats to Avery Kate, a fourth grader from Spring Hill, the Kansas David Lustick Winner!
During the Fall of 2021, the 10th annual Cool Science Extreme Weather Art Competition received entries from 319 K-12 students in Massachusetts, Kansas, and Missouri answering one of the following challenge questions:
What did you learn about extreme weather and climate that you want to teach adults?
Why is a weakening Polar Vortex causing wild ups and downs in winter temperatures?
How will our lives change as weather becomes more severe?
After a careful and thorough evaluation process, the Cool Science team selected 24 entries that will be displayed this fall on buses of participating Regional Transit Authorities (RTAs) to educate commuters and the public about extreme weather.
Cool Science is proud to present the honorees for 2021-2022. Thanks to all the teachers, mentors, and parents who helped students learn about extreme weather and express their ideas through art. We hope you enjoy the artwork!
