2012 Navajo Nation Science Fair sponsored by Office of Dine Science Math & Technology
WINDOW ROCK, Ariz.--Staff at the Office of Di Science, Math and Technology are gearing up the 2012 Navajo Nation Science Fair and are anticipating a new venue for the science fair along with the project deadline fast approaching.
The 2012 Navajo Nation Science Fair will host students from grades kindergarten to sixth grade on Feb. 28, 2012 and grades seventh to 12th on Feb. 29, 2012.
Red Rock State Park in Gallup, N.M. offers a larger venue to hold more science projects.
We hope to fill the auditorium with science projects from students across the Navajo Nation
2011 Science Fair brought in 427 projects from more than 600 students representing 29 area schools in Arizona, New Mexico and Utah.
Each student may enter only one category but there is no limit of projects per category.
Students bring creativity to their projects and then compete against each other to win top place and prizes. It is fun for teachers and parents to help a student put together the best project.
More than 50 judges are needed for the two day science fair this year. Individuals interested in becoming a judge for the science fair can register online.
Registration for projects from schools, teachers, students, and judges can be done at

Registration deadline is Feb. 17, 2012.
