The School of Science and Technology-Alamo is excited to announce its 2nd annual, Science fair. Our goal is to ensure that all students have an enriching, innovate, fun-learning experience here at SST-Alamo. Every year we will organize and conduct a School Science fair. At SST-Alamo, our mission is to uphold high expectations and enrich our students’ minds in Science, Math, and Technology. Therefore, each student is required to complete a research project in Science, while incorporating Math, Technology, Research, and Writing. At SST-Alamo we strive for excellence and we want all our students to excel in their academics; moreover, Failure to compete in our School Science fair will result in failing Science and possibly other courses. Due to the importance of our Science Fair, we are going to hold an informative science fair meeting for our parents on 4th & 5th Grade: September 21, Tuesday 5:00-6:15PM; 6th Grade: September 22, Wednesday 5:00-6:15PM; and 7th & 8th Grade: September 23, Thursday 5:00-6:15PM. Please see other very important information below:
