The Lazar STEAM Day Event also featured a station with Montville Township High School Science Olympiad Representative Natalia Dudek. Dudek, a MTHS sophomore, achieved 2nd in Remote Sensing and 6th in Green Generation at the Science Olympiad. She spoke with Lazar students about competing in the New Jersey Institute of Technology Science Olympiad competitions at both the middle school and high school levels.

From the kiln to the reduction chamber – During the Raku in-school field trip, art teacher Paul Moench and senior Kaden Kilmer-Setrakian removed the fired ceramic pieces from the kiln and placed them in the reduction chamber where the lack of oxygen created a chemical reaction that hardened the glazes into metallic finishes.
Montville Township High School Ceramics students Saanvi Yalamanchili and Morgan Soehnlein, both juniors, scrubbed the carbon from their works of art to reveal the metallic and carbon finishes achieved through the ancient potter's technique of Raku.
Victoria Gonzalez with her ceramic basket. Raku pieces that have been glazed emerge from reduction with a metallic look. Those without glaze will have a black matte finish. A combination of finishes is often used to create patterns and textures. The senior's basket has a shimmering metallic look intermingled with black matte finishes.
Megan Haley with the block vase fired using the Raku technique. The sophomore fired a series of block vases at the Montville Township High School in-school Raku field trip.
Burnt feathers and horse hair create a design on this unglazed ceramic vase.
When Frenchely Godet-Desmarais’ vase was removed from the kiln it was placed on a brick to cool. Immediately the senior applied horse hair to burn a pattern onto the surface of the clay. The smoldering process created a delicate and balanced design.
Ceramics students participated in an in-school Raku field trip. These works of art were fired using the ancient technique of Raku.
During the Raku in-school field trip, MTHS Ceramics students Frenchely Godet-Desmarais, a senior (center), and Megan Haley, a sophomore (right), assisted art teacher Paul Moench (left) in removing hot ceramic works of art from the reduction chamber.
Pottery cooling after being removed from the smoldering reduction chamber. Once cooled the carbon will be scrubbed from the surfaces to reveal the depth of colors and textures created during the Raku firing process.  The lack of oxygen in the chamber causes a chemical reaction to with the glazes.
