Student Registration

All student projects will be registered through Project Board. Registration is outlined in detail in Project Board upon sign up. This includes 8 registration steps, ISEF Forms, and OAS Consent Forms. Please make sure that your teacher also registers in Project Board so that you can be added to their classroom.

For District Science Day Projects, go to the Student Registration Directions and complete the steps to create your Project Board account. NOTE: If you are completing a group project, follow the instructions on the Project Board homepage to complete your specific registration steps. 

Eligibility

The event is open to all students in grades 5 – 12 and no local fair participation is needed. There is no registration fee required. Your school must be located in the southwestern Ohio district which includes the following counties: Butler, Clermont, Hamilton, Preble, and Warren.
