After a fabulous North Branch Science Fair in February 2026, 12 of our 6th-, 7th-, & 8th-graders are headed to the 46th Annual Virginia Piedmont Regional Science Fair at Piedmont Virginia Community College on March 12. All of the students worked very hard to design and execute science projects that tested hypotheses and often brought suprising conclusions. Every student presented to our guest judges and fielded questions after careful consideration.
Good luck to Daisy, Eleanor, Goldie, Paul, Chelsea, Laxman, River, Sadie, Duncan, Essa, Phoebe, and Signe as they advance to the next level. Special thanks to Coe Sweet Photography for the photos and to our guest judges: Linda Batdorf, Maggie Buchanan, Smith Coleman, Tom Eick, Mary Eiserman, Jeremiah Fish, Justin Harrison, Barbara Heyl, Chris Highley, Elvira Osuna-Highley, Wendy Lane, Melanie Stine, Mimi Toro, and David & Katrien Vance.
