[Bgsa] Science Fairs

[Brian Gray]

Hi Everyone,

Thank you to everyone who participated in the Riverside 
Unified School District Science and Engineering Fair.  Your 
efforts helped make the event a tremendous success!

EEOBGSA awarded three prizes to students--two in elementary 
school and one in middle school.  Many thanks to those who 
contributed to the prize fund, as well as to the EEOBGSA at 
large for its generous contribution.  Also, thank you to 
Adrienne, who presented the prizes at the awards ceremony last 
Thursday.

There are two more science fair opportunities coming up (see 
below).  If you do attend, please let me know how long you 
volunteer at each event--we're attempting to keep track of all 
of the volunteer hours EEOBGSA contributes to the community.

Thanks for all of your help!

Regards,
Brian

2) Jurupa Unified School District Science Fair Judges Needed

>From Sherri Stewart:
"The Jurupa Unified School District is currently preparing for 
our 24th Annual Science and Engineering Fair which will be 
held on March 3-5, 2010 at Jurupa Valley High School , 10551 
Bellegrave Avenue , Mira Loma.  This event is conducted to 
recognize student achievement in science at each of the 
district’s schools and to identify those outstanding projects 
that will represent Jurupa Unified School District at the 
Inland Science and Engineering Fair.
 
The judging process is a very important part of the event and 
will take place on Thursday, March 4.  I would like to invite 
you, along with anyone else you know who may be interested, to 
voluntarily serve as a judge for this year’s District Science 
Fair. 
 
At 8:00 a.m. on March 4, there will be an orientation meeting 
for the judges of the middle and senior projects.  During this 
meeting the judging forms will be explained, the judging 
assignments made, and questions you may have will be answered.  
Then, judging of the middle and senior projects will begin at 
8:30 a.m. and proceed until approximately 11:30 a.m.  The 
student exhibitors will be present for interviews to help you 
assess their achievement more accurately.
 
If you are unavailable on the morning of March 4, perhaps you, 
or others from UCR, would be able to judge elementary projects 
in the afternoon.  Since the elementary students are not 
present for interviews, these projects may be judged anytime 
before 5:00 p.m. 
 
Thank you for your consideration, and I hope that you will be 
able to fit this worthwhile event into your busy schedule.
 
Sincerely,
Sherri Stewart
