Mahalo to Dr. Kalk, of KCC for outstanding "Statistics for Science Fair" Workshop, Support of Science Curricuulum @ Kapaa and Island-wide

Aloha,
We would like to express our deep gratitude to Dr. Jon Kalk, of Kauai Community College for giving up his Saturday morning to teach a workshop on "Statistics for Science Fair". The workshop was held at Kapa`a High School, from 9 until noon.

Dr. Kalk has been incredibly supportive with his time and expertise in our efforts to raise the rigor of our science fair projects around the island. Due to his patience and training and the increased efforts of our teachers and students across the island our Kauai District Science Fair continues to grow and the quality of the projects continues to improve.

Teachers expressed an interest to have this workshop early in the science fair "season" so we could better help our students during the process. The workshop was attended by Justin Yamagata (science) from Waimea Canyon Middle School, Kevin Johnson (science) and Robert Odoya (math) from Kaua`i High, and Jim Cox (science) Kapa`a High School.

The next workshop held by Dr. Kalk will be the weekend of Dec 17th. This December workshop will be offered through KSTEM.

Mahalo Dr. Kalk.
