    Welcome to the home page for Humble ISD’s District Science-Engineering Fairs. The District Fairs are open to all students that live within the boundaries of Humble ISD. This includes students in the public schools, private schools, and those students that are home-schooled.
     
    Starting this year, the Elementary District Fair will be judging two fairs in one.  One fair will be the traditional Science Experiment and Engineering Projects.  The other will be Scientific Exploration Projects (Demonstrations, Research Projects, and Models).
     
     
     
    The District Fairs for the 2019-2020 school year are scheduled to be at Humble High School's Cafeteria:
              Secondary Setup:   1/24/2020 from 4 to 6 PM

     Our goal is to provide an opportunity for students to enjoy more exposure to science. We do this in a way that:
    • Provides hands-on exposure to science
    • Presents science as fun
    • Reinforces the scientific process students are learning in class
    • Provides opportunities for those students who are science enthusiasts
    • Recognizes those students who excel in science
    • Prepares students for participating in the Science-Engineering Fair of Houston (7th grade and up)
    • Teaches students to work through problems methodically and to follow a process.
     
    We have a new feature to help students put together a GREAT Project.

    Information

    Parents, teachers, and siblings are not permitted in the room during the judging process. Students should bring a book, a quiet game, or something else to do while waiting during the judging process. They may bring snacks and a bottle of something to drink with a screw-top lid.  We will call students in for judging in small groups by grade.  Until they are called, they can wait with their parents in the commons area.  When they are done with the judging process, they are free to leave.

    Setup for the District Fairs is done on Friday night before the Fair. The Fair is on Saturday.  Parents may choose for their children to participate in the monring judging session or the afternoon judging session. 
     
    If the District Secondary Fair is small, the judging will occur on Friday night during the setup time from 4 to 6 PM.
