LCDS SCIENCE FAIR
Where Wonder Meets Wisdom: The Annual LCDS Science Fair The LCDS Annual Science Fair is a cornerstone of our Lower School science curriculum, designed not only to foster academic growth but also to develop character through meaningful, hands-on learning. Beginning in fourth grade and culminating with a final project in fifth grade, the fair encourages students to engage deeply with the scientific method—posing thoughtful questions, conducting experiments, analyzing data, and drawing informed conclusions. This process teaches more than just science; it cultivates responsibility as students independently manage long-term projects, trustworthiness as they conduct their experiments with honesty, and critical thinking as they interpret their results. By taking ownership of their work, students build confidence and gain a deeper understanding of how science connects to the world around them. These experiences embody our mission at LCDS—to inspire students to become lifelong learners who think critically and creatively and to lead with courage and character. Beyond the scientific content, the Science Fair nurtures core values that are central to the LCDS community. Presenting findings to an audience of peers, teachers, and families provides students with authentic opportunities to practice respect, fairness, and compassion. They learn to listen attentively to others’ ideas, to share constructive feedback, and to celebrate diverse approaches to problem-solving. This collaborative spirit reflects the value of citizenship, as students recognize their role in a learning community and contribute to an environment where all voices are valued. The fair challenges students to lead with both knowledge and empathy—expressing their ideas clearly, supporting one another’s efforts, and embracing the process of discovery with integrity. In every experiment and every presentation, the LCDS Science Fair fulfills our mission by helping students grow not only as young scientists but as thoughtful, capable, and compassionate individuals prepared to lead with purpose.
