It is time to start thinking about whether you want to participate in Hawthorn's Science Fair this year. Science fair packets are available in the classroom, but we will not be sending them home unless a student wants one to save paper. They are also attached online. Science fair projects are due to school 1/20/23 and awards will be presented at STEAM night on 2/23/23. We will not be ordering boards at school this year but there is information about how to get a board in the packet. Please reach out to Michelle Salzman, msalzman@fz.k12.mo.us with any questions.
