Science Fair Display Board Guidelines
 
Each project will be allotted space for their project display.  To see an example from year's past, see Science Fair Project Board Sample. See also the project display board guide for how to design your layout and what needs to be included.
 
Display boards are required in order to present the project. They are on tri-fold, corrugated cardboard like the ones available at most office supply stores. White project boards can be purchased at the KWC school store on March 14 from 7:15 - 8:00 a.m. or at most craft or office supply stores. 

You may purchase any color, but please try to purchase the tri-fold type only- this will help us have an easy set up of our fair.

Projects should be identified as “touch” or “do not touch." Touchable projects should be able to withstand operation by over 500 students and adults.  Please ensure that they are sturdy. No chemicals, liquids, glass, or open flames.
 
During the Science Fair, students will be expected to stand with their projects and answer questions about their work from 6:30-7:30 p.m.
