    The Science Fair was a very exciting experience. To see everyone's different ideas and creativity (from elementary as well) was just amazing. I was one of the students who actually participated in the Science Fair. I worked with my teammate Tyler to create, discuss, and design our project Egg-Citing 1 & 2. We couldn't have done this without the help of our Instructor Ms. Mary Tucker. Our project from CHS came in Third Place and will be moving on to DCIU on March 7th.
