Although Chandler Unified educates only about 3% of the students in Arizona, CUSD students took home one third of the state’s Senior Division Best of Fair award-winning projects at the Arizona Science and Engineering Fair (AzSEF) held at the Phoenix Convention Center from April 4-5, 2019! Best of Fair winners from the Senior High Division go on to compete at the prestigious Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF), which will be held in Phoenix this year from May 12-17, 2019.
AzSEF is the science and engineering fair for the state of Arizona and is managed by Arizona Science Center. AzSEF brings together hundreds of science fair first-place winners from across Arizona to compete for thousands of dollars in prizes and scholarships.
