Saint Gregory the Great Students Achieve at Science Fair

Saint Gregory the Great School in Danbury recently hosted its annual Science Fair. Students in grades 6-8 presented their findings to experiments which were judged by parent volunteers with a background in science. The requirements of the approved research plan included the following: a guiding question, hypothesis, purpose, materials, procedure, data and results which included a graph and table, and a list of resources.
In addition, students had to draw conclusions based on their findings, and determine if the results were conclusive or useful in society.
