Science Fair

It is time for our Cascade students to showcase their scientific knowledge and amazing experiments.   

This year’s Science Fair Exposition day is on Friday, January 31st. It will be a full day focused on science. Students should arrive to school at 7:45 ready for a full day of learning. They will need to wear their best uniform (ties are very appropriate), bring a healthy lunch, and their B.O.B book.

If your child would like to order a sack lunch from the cafeteria, we will need to know no later than Thursday, January 23, 2010.

Between 9 A.M. and noon students will be presenting to the science fair judges. During this time the gym, where all of the experiments will be located, will be off limits to everyone but students and judges. Our judges are all experts in one or more scientific fields. They will be looking for the correct use of the scientific method, general understanding of the topic, and ability to present in an organized and thoughtful manner. One or more judges will meet with each student for 5 – 10 minutes.

 Because the displays are sequestered during judging, we invite friends and family to view the fair on Thursday, January 30th from 4 P.M. until 6 P.M. This is a great time to see what other students did, learn something new, and get ideas for next year.

Finally, all science fair awards will be officially presented at an All School Assembly the following Monday, February 3rd at 8 A.M.
