SCIENCE PROJECT UPDATE
Presentations begin on Monday, 12/9 for B Day students. Sign up will be in class tomorrow. Students may sign up for one of three days: 12/9, 12/11, or 12/17.
Presentations begin on Tuesday, 12/10 for A Day students. Students signed up today for one of three days: 12/10, 12/12, or 12/16.
On the day of your presentation you must bring
>your backboard,
>science project journal, and
>a copy of your abstract.
You access the SSEF form through nefrsef.org. Use the student tab to go to ABSTRACT.
You should prepare a short 3 minute talk for your peer judges and the head judge. There will be time for a question or two, so be prepared.
Anyone who has not made prior arrangements to ask for an extension of the due date and does not present will be considered a late presentation and the project will be graded accordingly.

At this time, if you have not submitted a proposal it is up to you and your parents to choose an appropriate project since they are your sponsors. You are still responsible for doing a legal project so make sure you follow all of the rules and fill out all of the paperwork.  If your parents sign the forms and give you permission to begin, you may. HOWEVER- any projects that do not comply with the rules will be graded as a ZERO and you will have to recycle the entire project for no higher than a grade of C.
