BSISD science fair Thursday

January 19, 2011

Crazy for chemistry? Bats about botany?

The best science projects in Big Spring Independent School District will be on display Thursday when the district's annual science fair is held at Dora Roberts Community Center.

Students in grades 3 through 12 will vie for prizes and scholarships by displaying their talents in one of 18 science disciplines. Elementary students already have had their projects judged at the campus level, but their work will be on display, as well, said Darrell Ryan, science fair organizer.

Judging of intermediate and senior division (grades 6 through 12) exhibits begins at 9 a.m. and the exhibits will be open for public viewing from noon until 3 p.m. An awards assembly is scheduled for 2 p.m.
