high school science fair ideas

Did someone
say science fair?

Let’s face it—preparing for the annual science fair can be intimidating. That’s true even for the most organized parent or student. There are deadlines to meet, topics to research, and oral presentations to practice! Fortunately, you don’t have to go it alone.

At HST, we understand the opportunities and challenges that a science fair may present. Below, you’ll find a list of articles that will guide you towards selecting a winning project. These projects incorporate hands-on learning using the scientific method. You can use them as they are, add to them, or simplify them. We’ve also provided a list of science kits, supplies, and subject areas. The testimonials are from real customers, like you, who successfully competed in a science fair using our products.

While winning a prize or advancing to the next round is wonderful, the real value of a science fair project is the science education that happens in the days, weeks, and months leading up to the big day!
