Description

For more than thirty years the Joseph Henry Science Fair has provided a venue for all Albany city students in grades 4 - 8 to enter a science fair competition.  Our event is open to students from all schools – public, parochial, and private.  Last year we had over 120 students representing 15 schools and 50 volunteers from the science and engineering community to judge our student entries. We pride ourselves in making sure that each student is recognized as a winner at our evening awards ceremony.  Indirectly, the Joseph Henry Science Fair drives the creation of thousands of science research projects as schools hold local competitions to determine whom to send to us.

The passes that were donated last year were used as a prize for one of the student projects.  We would love to use the passes as a prize again this year.
