Malibu students from grades four through eight and their parents attended the second annual Family Science Night at Malibu High School March 13.
More than 300 parents and students attended the event, which began with a chemistry demonstration in the gym by Pepperdine University chemistry professor Dr. David Green, followed by breakout sessions in different classrooms. Pepperdine science majors and faculty and high school science students helped provide hands-on experiments and activities in chemistry, physics, biology and nutritional science for the younger students.
The event was organized by Dr. Donna Nofziger Plank, biology professor at Pepperdine, and seventh- grade science teacher Elisabeth Flohr, along with Vice Principal Wendy Wax Gellis.
