The Edison Expo, Wolftrap’s Annual STEAM Fair, will be held Thursday, February 22, 2024!

This PTA-sponsored event offers all students K-6 an opportunity to showcase a project in Science, Technology, Engineering, Architecture, or Math. Students can work alone or with a partner on an experiment or invention or share their passions with their peers in an informational display. 

Check out our Getting Started Guide and Project Instructions then register HERE 

Attention 5th and 6th Grade:

Can you build a contraption to protect an egg from a 4 foot drop? What about a 6 foot drop? Even higher?! Straws, foam, sponges, cotton balls…? We can’t wait to see your creative ideas and test them during the Edison Expo. Please make sure to read the full instructions and then register HERE 

Parent-scientist/engineer or enthusiastic volunteer?

We would LOVE your help, primarily on the night of the event. To lend a hand, please email us at edisonexpo@wolftrappta.org

FAQs

When and where is this?  In the Wolftrap Cafeteria, beginning at 6 pm. Students should plan to be at their poster boards until the Egg Drop begins at about 7:15. The event will end by 8 pm.

Are there judges? There are some awesome parent volunteers who will come ask student exhibitors questions, but this is not a competitive event. Edison Expo aims to encourage curiosity and inspire students to share their STEAM passions with others. 

My child wants to do a project, but I don’t have time to search all over town for a poster board! The PTA is graciously funding this event and will provide poster boards (available for pickup in the school office) beginning February 1. Please make sure you have registered via the google form before grabbing one.
