Congratulations! You are about to embark on an exciting scientific journey. 

Students will conduct an experiment, which tests something and collects data, rather than create a model or display, which shows how something works but doesn't test anything. Science Fair participation is mandatory for all 5th grade students. The project will be graded and the grade will count as part of their overall science grade for the fourth marking period. 

Important Dates

March 21, 2025 - Approval Form due to teacher for experiment approval.

The Chairville Science Fair will be from 9:30 am - 10:30 am.  The fair will be set up like an open house.  Visitors may come at anytime during the above time.  More information will be available as the date approaches.
