If your kid is interested in science, robots and the kinds of things that make technology this is for you! The 15th Annual Angelina County Science & Tech Fair is an annual event that allows 6th-12th graders to compete in science and technology-related competitions. The event is a project of the Leadership Lufkin class and relies on sponsors and volunteers to be successful.

Scholarship

A $1,000 scholarship will be available to a qualified graduating senior who is enrolling in a college, university, or trade school beginning in the summer or fall semester immediately following the award of the scholarship. The recipient must be participating in either the Life Science and/or Invention competition. If the recipient is a team, each of the two team members will receive a $500 scholarship. For more details, see the Scholarship Criteria above.

Awards

$500 will be available to a competing junior in high school that is selected as “Judge's Choice”!

There will also be medallions, certificates, and gift cards for 1st ($120), 2nd ($80), and 3rd ($60) places. Teams of two will each receive one half of the amount. Honorable Mention will receive a medallion and a certificate.
