Be a scientist for a day! Watch our 2025 Science Fair Video to see what it's all about. Students complete a scientific project at home, design a display, and share their discoveries with judges and peers. The day is fun, rewarding, and full of excitement! Families can explore hands-on Learning Centers hosted by community organizations. New this year, enjoy a Wacky Science Show while judges finalize awards! Snacks and pizza will be available for purchase.

Registration is open now through February 24. Space is limited to 100 students, so register early. Science Fair Registration
