The district science fair will be in January/February and North Jackson Jaguars will be ready! Please keep this page so you have a reminder of important due dates! We will be completing most of the projects/experiments AT SCHOOL, so if you use the time given to you at school, it will not be necessary to work on it at home! Use your time wisely!! (These dates may change for your child depending on the experiment. Some take longer and may require different dates.)
