With the hard work of the parents and teachers we more than doubled the number of students participating. In addition, we had a great turn out for the actual science fair which included any student from the school, parents, siblings, and more. It was a “full house”.
This year I will be attending science fairs in many Midwest states.
Special week of science school shows
