The Central Sound Regional Science & Engineering Fair (CSRSEF) is the only ISEF-affiliated fair for high school students in King and Snohomish Counties in Washington State. Each year, dozens of high school students participate from public, private, and home schools from around western Washington.

Why do a Science or Engineering Fair Project?

The grand champion of the fair will win an all-expense paid trip to compete in the Intel International Science & Engineering Fair in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania this May. Prizes will be awarded to category winners and several local and national organizations will be on hand to present special awards.

Get Involved

WABS will provide transportation stipends to student teams from WABS member districts that participate in this year’s CSREF. For more information about these stipends, contact info@wabsalliance.org.

In addition to encouraging students to participate, teachers can get involved in other ways:

  • Field Trips: Plan a field trip to the CSRSEF on Saturday, March 10, 2012. Public viewing hours are from 1-3pm.
  • Be a Judge: Volunteering as a judge is a great way to learn more about the science and engineering fair process and how to encourage independent research projects in your classroom!
  • Teacher Information Session: Learn how local teachers have incorporated science and engineering projects into their curriculum during this one hour session from 1-2pm on Saturday, March 10 (during the CSRSEF public viewing hours).
