Dear Parents and Guardians,

I am thrilled to share that our Science Fair is coming up in February at Henry School Gym! This event is an exciting opportunity for our students to explore science and share their discoveries with our school community.

Event Details:

  • Date: February 4, 2026

  • Time: 9:00am - 11:00am

  • Location: Henry School Gym

Students will work on their projects in the coming weeks, combining creativity and scientific principles to investigate topics of interest. They can choose to work individually or in small groups and will receive guidance from their teachers throughout the process.

Here’s how you can help your child prepare for this event:

  1. Brainstorm ideas together. Talk about topics they are curious about and help them narrow down a project idea.

  2. Provide support. Help gather materials and encourage them to manage their time effectively.

  3. Celebrate their effort. Learning and experimenting is the most valuable part of this experience.

We look forward to celebrating their hard work and curiosity during this special event. If you have any questions, need additional information, or are interested in helping with the Science Fair, please contact us at rachel.reihe@k12.sd.us or abigail.lenssen@k12.sd.us. Thank you for your continued support in making this a memorable and enriching experience for our students!

Sincerely,

Rachel Reihe &  Abigail Lenssen
