Two St. Joseph’s Academy students qualified to participate in the 2025 Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair-ISEF, held May 10-16 in Columbus, Ohio. ISEF is the world’s largest international STEM competition for high school students.
Juniors Caroline Thomas and Allison Riley were among the young scientists at the fair, which celebrated its 75th anniversary this year. Nearly 2,000 students participated, representing all 50 states and more than 70 countries and territories.
“I am so proud of our girls who worked so hard from the beginning to the end,” said Jacqueline Savoia, SJA’s science fair director.
Riley’s research project is entitled The Whole Climate: Assessing Student and Teacher Mental Wellness. Thomas’s project is Controlling Invasive Salvivia molesta Weeds by using Cyrtobagous salviniae.
