Discovery Regional

Science and Engineering Fair

Look for the Revival of the Regional Science and Engineering Fair!

After 20+ years and a hiatus, there is movement to reestablish the k-12 Fair for 2028.

To support the endeavor, contribute to/garner donations, and just be part of the fun bringing science opportunities to students across our region, reach out to Timothy Smith, STEM Specialist/Washington State Science Fellow who teaches in the Pioneer School District.

All students 1st thru 12th grade from public, private, and home schools in Clallam, Grays Harbor, Jefferson, Kitsap, Lewis, Mason, Pierce, and Thurston Counties interested in participating in a Science Fair for 2027 are always encouraged to participate in the Washington State Science & Engineering Fair.

About Us

  • Our Mission is to encourage students in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM).
  • We encourage participants to work on their projects with adults, including family members, teachers and mentors. We ask that students identify the contributions made by adults. Historically some STEM fairs downgraded projects for suspected adult involvement. Discovery does not.
  • We are a Washington State non-profit corporation with IRS tax exempt status.
  • We are an all-volunteer organization.
  • We need volunteers to assist with tasks.
  • South Sound STEM Fair Alliance, in compliance with US Law does not discriminate in the administration of the Discovery Regional Science and Engineering Fair (DRSEF) or any other activities on the basis of race, gender, sexual orientation or preference, national or ethnic origin, color, disability, marital status, age, or religious belief.
