Get ready for the exciting K-5 Science Fair

Discovery, creativity, and interactive learning at the 2nd Annual Scotia-Glenville Sciencepalooza

Our Districtwide K-5 Science Fair is happening on March 6 at the High School. Last year, we had over 100 enthusiastic students participate, and this year we can’t wait to see even more budding scientists showcase their amazing projects!

The Scotia-Glenville Sciencepalooza is all about inspiring elementary students to dive into the wonders of the scientific method while having a blast! Each participant will explore a topic they love, follow their grade-level guidelines of the scientific method, and create a tri-fold poster to display their findings.  

The posters should feature the project title, along with the student’s name and grade. Students should also be prepared to discuss what they learned with a small group of Science Fair Advisors during the event. Every participant will receive a Science Fair ribbon, courtesy of our PTA Council.
