SCIENCE ON MARS

Young scientists from across Mars Area School District showed off their STEM skills at the Mars Area Centennial Science Fair on Thursday night.

The event, sponsored by the Mars Elementary Parent-Teacher Organization (PTO), involved fifth- and sixth-grade students presenting their projects and being evaluated on the quality of their work.

The Centennial Science Fair returned this year for the first time since the pandemic.

“It was the week right before the shutdown,” said Jenna Falkner, president of the Mars Elementary PTO. “I think we have more projects (this year) than we did that last year in 2020.”
