W. Babylon Student Recognized by Brookhaven National Lab

The West Babylon School District announced South Bay Elementary School kindergarten student Joseph Dispigno received a certificate of achievement from Brookhaven National Lab in recognition of his recent success during the Brookhaven National Lab Science Fair.

Joseph’s project, “No More Germs,” tested to see whether hand sanitizer or soap gets rid of more germs. He concluded that hand sanitizer was more effective.

“Joseph was very excited to share his ribbon with the class,” said kindergarten teacher Debra McGuire. “He had a wonderful experience with his first science fair and we are all very proud of his accomplishment.”
