Science Fair 2004
Fontana Unified School District's 2004 Science
Fair was held on Saturday, February 28th, at A.B. Miller High School.
Participation in the science fair is an
opportunity for students to participate in a scientific investigation. Each
student's project explores a science topic that interests them. Students
identify a problem or a question, conduct research, and carry out an experiment
to learn more. Building a display and presenting results of their experiment is
an important and fun way of sharing their creative abilities and the results of
their investigation.
Science Fair Projects of Medal Winners will represent Fontana Unified at the
County Inland Science & Engineering Fair on April 20-21 at the Orange Show.
