Three advance to international competition —
Science students are not letting the pandemic and virtual presentations derail them from demonstrating their knowledge and love of the subject. All 44 students (31 high school and 13 middle school) and 35 projects that advanced to the Griffin RESA Regional Science and Engineering Fair earned placements with 24 students earning first place honors.
High school (senior division) and middle school (junior division) first place winners will represent the region at the Georgia Science and Engineering Fair that will be held virtually March through April of 2021. Both of Fayette’s high and middle school students took 90 percent of the first place awards in their divisions.

With some middle and high school students enrolled in full-time virtual learning and others attending school on a hybrid schedule, the new way of teaching and learning during a pandemic did not stop science enthusiasts from entering projects in the annual Fayette County Science and Engineering Fair.
