The STEM EXPO provides students an opportunity to demonstrate their knowledge and passion for science, technology, engineering and math. Students are also provided with the opportunity to showcase their hard work as they take pride in presenting their projects to their community.
Due to changes made at the district and state levels, the STEM EXPO, will be a combination of digital and in-person opportunities. Students will submit a video using Google Slide to present their project. Those attending the APS STEM EXPO will be interviewed in-person by group of judges from engineering and science society professionals, universities, and community leaders. These resource professionals could serve as future career/college contacts. These organizations provide tremendous funding support and financial awards to students whose projects surpassed the state criteria and align with their organization’s goals. Therefore, students participating in the APS and District 5 Science Day, will need a trifold of their project. This site has the templates for all requirements.
Projects are judged based on state criteria. Now, all students from APS are welcome to enter the Western Reserve District 5 Science Day (WRD5) - currently, APS covers the registration fee of $30.00 per scholar. From there, depending on their ranking, participants can progress to the state Science Days if they earn "Superior" and APS covers the registration fee of $60.00 per scholar.
