8th Grade Research Projects

Students pick an area of study early in their 8th grade year. Along with a like minded group of students, they create their own research question, and spend the entire year collecting data that supports (or refutes) their claim. This data is then combined into a streamlined presentation that is presented to a panel of local scientists.

This most recent batch of presentations can be seen below.
