Suffolk County Schools

This in-person competition is for Kindergarten through sixth grade students in Suffolk County who have already won their school science fair competition. Homeschool students from Suffolk County are also eligible if they have won a science fair competition run by an official homeschool organization. Homeschool competitions must have at least 10 projects to be eligible to submit their winners.

How Do I Register?

The science fair coordinator for your school will register the winners of their competition. All registrations and projects must be submitted after your school science fair, but before the deadline of May 3, 2024. If you are a coordinator, please remember to register and submit your students' projects.
