Alliance High School recently hosted the annual Science Alliance Science Fair. This year, 51 students competed with 25 projects, 13 of which received a superior rating making them eligible to compete in the district science fair.
The science fair looked a little different for this year with the traditional boards and presentations not taking place. Instead, students created slideshow presentations that were presented to the judges. This change is due to the district and state level science fairs taking place virtually instead of in person.
