This time — our Science Fair.
Our teachers have determined that the kids will not have enough time to work on group science projects. The school will reschedule the fair as soon as possible, and we will let everyone know.
For those of you who so generously signed up to be judges, we thank you for volunteering! We hope you will be able to judge the rescheduled fair. The science fair coordinator, Dominque Mendoza, will contact you.
If you have any questions, please click this link to find the contact form for Ms. Mendoza.
Thank you for supporting Peabody Elementary!
