Science Fair
All students are invited to participate in El Marino's 22nd Annual Science Fair! The Science Fair is a fantastic learning opportunity filled with amazement and wonder, a chance to express curiosity and initiative while discovering the MAGIC of SCIENCE!
Students can work individually or in a group, then display their awesome science project for all students and their families to see on the day of the event.
Student participation is optional, but highly encouraged! Learn how to use a microscope or make glow in the dark goo! Students who participate will get a fun prize and earn extra credit for their science grade (check with your child's teacher for details).
