Student Registration - CLOSED for 2024
Registration is now closed for this year's Fair. The 2024 fair has 124 registered projects, serving 159 students across 15 schools.
Fair registration will open once the first school holds their school-level fair (usually mid-November). You may not register for this "District-level" fair until you have competed in and advanced from a school-level fair.
BEFORE students begin experimentation or construction, ALL must have completed the following forms AND secured the appropriate signatures on those forms.
