District 16 held a STEM Expo at Miramichi Valley High School recently. High school students had the opportunity to publicly demonstrate and explain their work in the areas of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math to their peers.  They also competed in a wooden bridge construction competition, some modelling  their design on the century old Morrissey Bridge that joins Newcastle Miramichi with the south side of the river.  Just such a design was used by the James M. Hill High winning entry of students Jacob Woods, Mike Quann, and Fabian Pesch. Three area high schools, JMH, MVHS and NSER also demonstrated their school  drag cars that recently competed in a provincially sanctioned racing competition which was won by North and South Esk Regional High School .
