Twenty-four students from the eighth-grade Science Research Program at Howard T. Herber competed at the Broadcom Masters Middle School Competition at the Long Island Science and Engineering Fair, commonly known as LISEF. Ten projects from Herber were entered into the competition, the maximum allowed. Out of 159 projects from middle schools across the island, Malverne’s Elizabeth Cardenas and Madison Jessen took second place with their project entitled “The Efficacy of Different Super Glues.” This is the first time that students from Howard T. Herber have placed second in the competition.
