I am so disappointed with some of the comments made on this wonderful event. This was our first year participating and our first year attending. I was so impressed! Yes, our family worked together on the science fair projects. It was great family time! And yes, my childre did a great job on their projects and learned alot from the experience. I was impressed by the quality of questions that science consultant asked and the time he spent conversing with the children on their projects! I too, stepped back and didn't answer anything about the projects because it wasn't mine to answer. As a family, we took the projects to the level that the kids wanted to take them to and nothing more. Perhaps instead of criticizing parents and children, we should thankful that there are parents who are showing how to be great role models for learning and also parenting! Shame on you SpongeBob! ( Also, nothing was graded....this was all done on the student's time away from school and noncompetitive!) Thank you Monroe School parents!
