Dear TBHS Community,
Happy February Break! I hope everyone gets some much needed rest and relaxation. Monday Night, Dr Horton and I presented the scheduling process to School Committee. Last night we had the Winter Coffee House sponsored by the Literary Magazine. Rehearsals for Mama Mia! are underway and winter sports are winding down. When we come back from break, the Staff/Senior Volleyball game is on Friday 2/27 at 7pm to benefit the HEA Scholarship Fund. We hope to see an outstanding turnout this year!
Best,
Kim

Greetings from the Bromfield Science Department!
Consider being a judge at the 2026 Science Fair. The annual Bromfield Science Fair will take place in person at The Bromfield School, 14 Massachusetts Avenue in Harvard, MA on Friday, March 7 at 3:30 pm. What could be more fun than interacting with some enthusiastic and energetic young scientists on a topic they’re passionate about?
Prior experience is not required; training and guidance will be provided. A background in science is helpful but not essential. What’s more important is a love of learning and an interest in interacting with young scientists. Judging at the science fair requires about 1½ to 2 hours. We ask judges to arrive at 3:00 pm, so we can start with a brief training session. Judging will finish around 5:45 pm, depending upon the number of projects that are in your panel.
If you are interested and available to judge at this year’s science fair, please complete this form (link: https://forms.gle/XnuYJE7xxUzgm7pp8) with your contact information as well as the subjects and grade levels you prefer to judge. We will determine judging assignments based on the number and types of projects and do our best to match your preferences. Please contact Kristen Vanderveen, the Bromfield science department leader, with any questions or changes to your availability.
We look forward to hearing from you!
Sincerely,
The Bromfield Science Department
