Judges

If you are interested in participating as a volunteer, we need some judges! 

The judges would arrive on the day of our STEM Fair, January 26th, around 8:30 for a complimentary breakfast, then judge the projects starting at 9:00 AM. This should only take about an hour. The rubrics will be provided to you online. We only need a few more judges (preferably also one that speaks Spanish!)

Parents of participants are welcome to participate, they just aren’t able to judge their own child’s project. If you would like to be a judge at our school STEM fair, please sign up here!
