Science Ethics Community Project

Mrs. Alba's science ethics class has been working on a project to improve our "MIT Ethics." Each team researched a topic and interviewed the MIT community about issues in their areas. Based on analysis of the data collected in surveys and interviews, they created an awareness campaign to improve our MIT Ethical Culture. Some teams designed informational websites, created awareness posters, and made commercial videos with information and skits to educate our community about its importance. The campaigns will be shared with our school and community soon. Our themes are:

  • Homework and Test Honesty
  • Avoid Drugs
  • Healthy Eating
  • Physical Activity
  • Traffic Rules
  • Adequate Use of Phones

Please be aware and help us build a better MIT community!

Higher Orbit Team's Visit to Kennedy Space Center

As most of you already know, our Higher Orbit team won the national competition last year for their science experiment focusing on the effect of radiographic fungi on satellite components. Their experiment was selected to be sent to the International Space Station for more research.

Recently the space capsule attached to the SpaceX rocket was sent to space. Our students, Anthony Q., Ruqaiya G., and Zara A., went to see this launch in person. They witnessed their experiment taking off standing right in front of the launch site at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

This was a great, unforgettable, and very proud moment for the students, parents, and MIT to be able to attain such a great achievement. The scientists at the International Space Station will further study this experiment in space and will inform our team about the data and results.

We wish all the very best to our MIT Higher Orbit team, and we are looking forward to having successful research on this experiment in the future.

First Soccer Game on Our Home Ground

MIT students, teachers, and staff experienced the MIT home football field for the very first time. The students vs. teachers soccer game, organized by our athletics director, Mr. Butler, was played on our home football field.

Students, teachers, and staff had a great time witnessing this game in the amazing weather. The game ended with a tie, with a score of 1-1, and then students won the game in the penalty shoot-out round.

A big thank you to Mr. Butler for organizing the event and our teachers for playing the game and showing their spirit.
