Once again, students did a wonderful job on their projects for the 2024 Redeemer Science Fair, held on February 15th. Logic school students presented their projects to a panel of judges — members of the local scientific community. These projects were the culmination of many months of work which included: researching a question, testing a hypothesis, analyzing the results, and sharing their work visually and orally.

Student projects were evaluated for:

Proper understanding and use of the scientific method
Thoroughness of research and experimental testing
Skill and complexity
Clarity of overall presentation
Creativity
