Status | There has not been any county or multi-county regional science fair representing your county for many years, if ever. |
Options for students: | Although you have no defined route to the California Science & Engineering Fair, it may still be possible to participate. See our FAQ on Special Admissions. |
Options for adults: |
If you are a teacher, work in the county office of education, or are simply an adult motivated to organize a science fair in your area for the purpose of promoting science and providing an avenue by which students can qualify to participate in the California Science & Engineering Fair, then contact us directly via email. We will work with you in starting small this year with the idea of eventually building up to a county-wide science fair having a regular affiliation with CSEF. We do not impose any rigid regulations on how you run your fair. We are more interested in promoting science activity, accomplishment, and appreciation than imposing a new bureaucracy. See for yourself — just read our easily satisfied rules for affiliated fairs. Then contact us about starting a science fair in your area. |
