Science Technology Engineering Mathematics Fair Winners!
The April 22nd STEM Fair provided students in grades 6 and 8 with the opportunity to apply the scientific method to conduct independent research on a topic of their choice. The students’ efforts were displayed in the Main Gymnasium where finalists presented their projects to fellow students, parents and judges.
