Gotta Brag on Them


I wish I could name names and show faces, but just let me say that Saturday my students were among the best of the best! We took five projects and nine students to the district science fair on Thursday,and on Saturday three students representing two different projects won first place in their respective categories. We compete against well funded east bench schools where parents take science fair seriously. The kids at those schools have plenty of help and lots more time both in and out of school to work on their projects. So it's gratifying to see our cute kids do well in such a competition with a very uneven playing field. Congratulations to all nine young scientists. They won just by competing.

Good for them! They may not have all the resources that the better funded students have, but they have you and that is obviously a lot!
