    Problem Areas To Be Aware Of:

►The best science fair and engineering projects are not built at the last minute, but are the result of careful planning and work over a period of time.  Therefore, parents and teachers are urged to give directions, information, and encouragement to your students as soon as possible.

►All participants in the District Science Fair must have a display board with title board for stability.  These can be purchased at Wal-Mart or office supply stores. 

►Occasionally district projects end up in a different category than the project was originally entered.  The project will be placed in the most appropriate category with leveling of categories being a contributing factor.  Similar student projects will compete against each other in the most appropriate category.  This will be at the discretion of the Director.  WARNING:   All students must give a brief and accurate description of their projects on the entry form or the project will be disqualified.

►If a student qualifies for the district science fair, they are reminded that if they are not able to pick-up their projects during the designated time slot to make arrangements to have their project picked-up.  Remaining projects and boards will not be returned to individual schools.

►If  a student qualifies as an overall project finalist, that individual will receive a phone call before 6:30 am on Thursday morning, Feb. 21st at the latest.

►If you would like a Science Club judging team to help at your school call Melisa Westerman
