Calling All Young Scientists!
WHO:
Open to all MCS students in grades K–7! Families will help support students as they complete their projects at home.
WHAT:
The MCS Science Fair Club is a fun opportunity for students to explore a topic they are curious about through hands-on science investigation and creativity. Students will work through the scientific method to ask questions, test ideas, solve problems, and share discoveries. Participants will complete a science fair project, including a presentation board, and present their work to judges and the MCS community.
AWARDS:
Our kind and welcoming judges will score each student's science fair project based on skills such as creativity, originality, oral presentation skills, application of the scientific method, and student depth of knowledge. Awards will be based on students' cumulative scores.
Each student will receive a Science Fair completion certificate after their project interview! Additional awards will include:
