Who may participate?The Greater East Alabama Regional Science & Engineering Fair (GEARSEF) is open to all students in grades 6-12 who have advanced from their local science fair (school, county, district, or community fair) and reside within the following Alabama counties: Autauga, Barbour, Bullock, Butler, Chambers, Coffee, Crenshaw, Dale, Elmore, Geneva, Henry, Houston, Lee, Lowndes, Macon, Montgomery, Pike, Russell, and Tallapoosa. Students can be enrolled in public or private schools in the region or affiliated with a home school cover school. Auburn University's Regional Fair is the next step forward for those winning projects.
- Schools will register for the GEARSEF digital system in the early Fall to allow time for the needed paperwork and project pre-approval signatures.
- ACS will have an informational meeting about completing forms online soon. Registration information will be given at any of the informational sessions and will be available on our website after those dates.
- Individual project details will be due to Mrs. Middleton until Jan 12, 2019 and will be turned in through the online system.
