April 2008 - Weeks of hard work led to the final competition in the Pinecrest School Science Fair. Students learned and refined a variety of skills in the process. They started with an idea for an experiment. They researched background information, performed the experiment using the scientific method, keeping statistics, analyzing results and drawing a conclusion. Finally, they put all of it together in a clear, informative format.

Judges reviewed the student projects, and finally made their choice of those that best met the prescribed criteria. Congratulations to all of our students for their hard work and creative projects.
