Academy of Science St. Louis Science Fair
The Kirkwood Science, Math and Engineering Fair uses the same rules and rubrics for judging projects as the Academy. This link connects you to that information. The link also contains important information about the Virtual Fair. A project is entered in the Academy Science Fair if you are selected to do so from the Kirkwood School District.
KSD Experiment Rubric: for projects that fall into the experiment category. We do not use the Academy's rubric for experiments. Virtual projects also use this rubric.
