STEM EXPO
STEM EXPO 2021 is going Virtual!
The Science Center’s annual District 102 STEM EXPO, our celebration of all things science and technology, is going virtual! On Saturday, March 6th, via the internet, EXPO will showcase the talents of students in the areas of Science, Technology, Engineering and creative Making. We cannot meet in person but we can still showcase and share our STEM projects virtually.
Interested students can choose from one of the four project categories and create a STEM project that will dazzle and amaze others while learning about a scientific concept.

E = Engineering project or invention
M = Maker-style project
- Have you tried an interesting experiment at home?
- Have you invented something new?
- Have you used technology to create something awesome?
- Have you explored or learned about a science topic or idea?
All students will receive a participation award. All the details haven’t been ironed out yet, but there will be an online presentation for families, friends and the community, as well as presentations to officials via Zoom.
