Carson elementary student is science finalist

Kristin Mae Albaniel, a fifth-grader at Bonita Street Elementary School in Carson, was named one of 20 finalists of a science competition sponsored by KOST 103.5 FM.

For the competition, students were asked to invent a toy and describe it. Albaniel invented a board game called "The 50 States Game." She won a $100 gift card to purchase materials to build the game. On Sunday (Nov. 18), she'll participate in the Excitement of Science Fair in Los Angeles to show off her invention.

Following the fair, students will watch Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium during a private screening.
