The tentative schedule for the March 18th competition is as follows:
(All sessions will take place on the 3rd floor of Plaster Student Union.)

The competition will consist of paper presentations for both high school (grades 9-12) and middle school (grades 6-8) students. During the preliminary round, students will be allowed 12 minutes for an oral presentation followed by 3 minutes of questions from a panel of judges. Selected papers will advance to a final round to be held in the afternoon. Papers will be assigned to categories for the judging which will be based on information similar to this scoring rubric.
TEAM PROJECTS ACCEPTED
Again this year, students have the option to present Team Projects at the district and state MJAS competition. Teams shall consist of no more than 3 students. All members of the team must participate in the oral presentation and the time allotment for the presentations will be the same as for individual projects.
Missouri Junior Academy adheres to the rules, guidelines, and protocols promoted by the Intel ISEF. All projects must follow the same protocols as your regional fair and must be certified by the appropriate committee before experimentation begins. If a project is subject to any specific certifications, a copy of the certifications MUST be included with the research paper. Papers without these certifications from their regional science fair committee will not be eligible for competition.
To obtain the necessary forms - Use the NEW ISEF RULES WIZARD!
