Science Fair Philosophy:
The school Science Fair is a brief opportunity for students to create and explore their own questions that come up in science. The scientific method offers them the tools they need to investigate what they are curious about. Please remember to foster this process of inquiry and the joy of science. It is not about competition or even the successful outcome of an experiment. It’s about the pleasure of discovery and trying out something new and fun.
How to help my child get started!
Parent Science Advisor office hours will begin in January-February to answer student questions and help with issues that come up. Parent advisors will be available to answer quick questions in a particular field (biological sciences, chemistry, physics, etc.) throughout January-March. The following parents have made themselves available to answer science-related questions throughout the course of the Science Fair.
Science Advisors:
Jenifer Aronowitz
Vladimir Ivanovic
Eric Ramberg
Margie Suozzo
You can find their contact information in the Gardner Bullis school directory,
Mr. Jim Thurber will be the on-campus faculty advisor. He will be available to assist in experiment design, problems that may arise, general questions.
