Congratulations to Colleyville Heritage and Grapevine high school students who competed at the Fort Worth Regional Science and Engineering Fair Monday, February 24, and had 12 projects advance to state competition. The Texas Science and Engineering Fair will take place March 28-29 at Texas A&M University in College Station.
In addition, all first place winners in each of the 15 events also vie to be named "Best of Fair,” a title awarded to the top six projects. GCISD had two "Best of Fair” honorees, which automatically advanced to compete at the Regeneron International Science and Engineering (ISEF) Fair to be held May 10-16 in Columbus, Ohio. ISEF is considered to be the world’s largest research competition for high school science students.
