Science Fair and STEM Showcase

TCS Road to STEM Showcase

Get ready to be amazed by the budding scientists of our school! The Falcon Science Fair is just around the corner, showcasing the creativity, curiosity, and hard work of our students. This event is an opportunity for them to explore scientific concepts, conduct experiments, and present their findings on a wide range of topics—from environmental science to physics and biology. Winners of the Science Fair will advance to the STEM Showcase at the University of Alabama. 

Parents, teachers, and community members are invited to come and support our young scientists as they demonstrate their projects and share their knowledge. Whether you're passionate about science or simply curious, there's something for everyone at this year's fair!

Join us for an inspiring day of discovery and learning. We look forward to seeing you there! More information to come!
