Science Fair
The Turner Ashby Science Club is hosting a school wide Science Fair on May 28th. There will be cash prizes awarded to the first and second place winners, and the fair is open to any TA student. This is a unique opportunity to earn recognition for your scientific achievements, so anyone interested in participating should see Mrs. Hipps or their science teacher for an information packet. We would like to have the names of all possible participants by the end of this week. So tell all your friends and join in the fun, because it’s going to be awesome!
Any science club member that wishes to help with the fair on May 28th should tell Mrs. Hipps or Lydia Hanson ASAP!
