Dear Parents in grades 5th, 6th, 7th, & 8th.

Please note that Science Fair projects will begin the week of February 2nd, 2009. Each student must perform and present a project as this is an integral part of their science grade in the third quarter. Display boards set up, books, ideas and advice were already given and shown to your child. Your child should begin working on their projects at home. It is important that you work with your child on their project before it is presented in class. Your child will be graded on neatness, scientific method order on display board, presentation, experiment, and level of difficulty. The last day for science projects is February 20th 2009. Projects WILL NOT be accepted after February 20th, 2009.
