Parents go to each classroom to sign up for a time for a private conference. Hunter s many performing arts groups Hunter Theater Ensemble, Brick Prison, Bands, Orchestras, Choruses, and Musical Repertory present afternoon and evening shows several times each year. Students prepare research reports, experiments, or surveys on a topic of interest. 7th and 8th graders must present a project to their science class. Two projects from each class are selected for display in Hunter s Science Fair.
All students are welcome to visit the Science Fair, where exhibitors explain their projects.
Visitors vote for the best projects, and these results, along with science teacher recommendations, determine which projects will compete in the Borough of Manhattan Science Fair. This gala evening is our major fundraising event. Featuring live and silent auctions, the evening is a wonderful social occasion with a lovely buffet dinner. Gift certificates for purchase and a raffle are also offered. This event is the main source of funding for student clubs and activities and requires the help of many parents.
