Visitors of the Fort Worth Museum of Science and History have the opportunity this month to view the top Fort Worth ISD student projects from the district’s science fair.

As part of this annual event at Wilkerson-Greines Activity Center, the top ten projects with the highest scores will be displayed at the museum. Families of the winners are able to see the projects for free. To purchase tickets to the museum, visit the museum website. 

Around 250 students from across the district participated and found innovative ways to perform experiments on parts of their everyday lives — like popcorn and nail polish. Most of the entries were elementary students, but some middle schoolers also participated.
