We celebrated Pajama Day for meeting our mid year reading goal! |
| Science Fair |
| It's that time of year again...Science Fair Time! Science Fair projects are a wonderful way to get your child involved with the scientific method. Projects submitted must include an experiment, NOT a demonstration. Remember to keep your science simple – it is more important to follow (and write up) the steps of the scientific method than to have a complicated project. Projects can be turned into your child's classroom teacher on Monday, February 27th. We will recognize our school's Science Fair winners at our annual PTA Science Fair Night, Monday, March 5th. Here is a preparing for the Science Fair video. More information can be found on the science fair page under the student tab. |
