Science Fair

Science Fair provides individual students or small teams of students the option of exploring a science problem through experimentation or solving an engineering design problem.  At Blevins every Pre-AP student in grade 8 and 9 is requried to complete an individual science fair project.  Over 100 students participate in the Blevins Science Fair each year.  Judges from the community choose 10 grade 8 and 10 grade 9 students to send to the Longs Peak Science and Engineering Fair at UNC in Greeley.  The top two senior division students (grades 9-12) receive a direct trip to the International Science and Engineering Fair.  The top students in both the senior division and the junior division (grades 6-8) are invited to participate in the Colorado Science and Engineering Fair.  Blevins' students participate in Science Fairs at the school, regional, state, and international level every year.
