During the Oxford School District Lower Elementary Science Fair, over 50 school students in first through third grade answered real-world questions they had about science, engineering, and technology.

Students then constructed insightful science fair projects using the scientific method and displayed them following the International Science and Engineering Fair Rules and Regulations. The top three winners in ten individual categories now move on to compete at the Region VII Science Fair at the University of Mississippi on April 6, 2016.

Over 30 volunteer judges—professors, scientists, and graduate students from various science disciplines—from the University of Mississippi volunteered to critique the projects and interview the children about their work.

The district event was hosted by Oxford Elementary School.
