We are very excited to announce the return this year of a longstanding tradition: the Driscoll Science Fair! The continuing uncertainties around the pandemic have necessitated some changes in the scheduling and logistics around this event, but we believe we will be able to hold the fair in-person in a safe and enjoyable fashion. This year’s event will take place on Saturday April 30th, 2022 from 9:00 a.m. to noon on the outdoor playspace next to the cafeteria. In the event of inclement weather, we will move the fair indoors to the cafeteria and gym (in accordance with prevailing guidance related to social distancing if applicable).

Please visit the Science Fair webpage (https://www.driscollpto.org/science-fair) for more information and for signup details. The registration fee is $10 per student, with scholarships available to defray this cost for families in financial need. Participants are asked to please sign up by Wednesday April 27th, 2022.

(Note as well that, exceptionally this year, the Driscoll Science Fair will not serve as a qualifying event for the regional or state science fairs. Due to the pandemic, these fairs have been scheduled as online-only events and will be held prior to our school fair. Judging will nevertheless be conducted and prizes will be awarded by grade level on April 30th).

We look forward to seeing many interesting and creative projects from our brilliant young Driscoll scientists!
