On Tuesday, March 18 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the cafeteria, the Niles North physics department will be hosting its fifth annual Physics Phrenzy event.

On the night of the Phrenzy, guests will be able to experience first-hand topics like air resistance, hovercrafts, Alka-Seltzer rockets, and more at over 25 different stations led by the physics students themselves. The students will be performing interactive demonstrations in which guests can observe, make their own predictions, or even test out their own ideas.

The event is coordinated by physics teacher Scott Reed. “Physics Phrenzy is a great opportunity to spark interest in science through exciting explosions of fun,” Reed said. “The event will have lots of physics-related activities for children of all ages to explore, learn and have fun with science.”

“I’m excited to introduce younger people to physics and show them all the neat tricks they can do with just a little bit of knowledge,” physics student junior Samar Ashrafi said.

The Physics Phrenzy is a free community event, and although it is geared towards second through eighth grade students, everyone is welcome to enjoy this fun and educational night.
