Fairs focus on our young scientists
It was cold, windy and snowing when we set out one Tuesday morning in February. The trunks and branches of the trees in the yards we passed were pristine white.
Some schools were closed, we heard on the radio, some were open. It looked as if all schools might be closed, but all the same we drove along the plowed roadways rather easily to our destination — Washington Elementary School in Niles. Thankfully, there was a parking space cleared for our arrival.
My wife and I were among eleven volunteers invited to be judges at the school’s 2008 science fair. We had judged a number of times in prior years. It is always enjoyable and it stimulates a worthwhile feeling to be a part the world of learning for young people.
Elementary school science fairs, I understand, have been offered for years. A number of schools in Trumbull County have had fairs.
