Welcome to our Science Department Connection Page!
Science Fair Projects
Young minds at VHS compete each year at our school, regional, state, and international engineering fairs. We here at VHS mentor independent science research for our students. Our youth are tomorrow's inventors. These competitions are great opportunities for cash prizes, scholarships, and college acceptance, along with opportunities to meet other students from the area and around the world that share similar interests and learn more about how the world works in order to offer solutions to individual, local, or even global problems.
