Rogers High School announced the winners of the annual Science and Engineering Fair today, which was held today in the Rogers High School gymnasium.
More than 140 students presented 100 science and engineering fair projects to over 55 judges.
“Scoring was extremely close as many projects were judged to be outstanding by the volunteer judges from the community, including the University of Rhode Island, Salve Regina University, Johnson & Johnson, Newport Public Education Foundation, the Boys and Girls Club, Administration, faculty, and staff, Rogers High School alumni, and leading Rogers High School seniors,” according to an email forwarded to What’sUpNewp by Newport School Superintendent Colleen Burns Jermain.
The Science and Engineering Fair was made possible with contributions from the Newport Public Education Foundation.
The winners will represent Rogers High School at the state science fair competition in March at the Community College of Rhode Island.
