Science Fair Information

From Melissa  Carter:

I spoke with Carolyn Bostick at Beaufort District Office this morning about robotics and science fairs for homeschoolers. We are still working out the logistics of the robotics clubs, but as for the science fairs, here is the protocol. If your child would like to participate in a science fair this year, they must go to the Beaufort District website and fill out the forms located under parents/charter/home.
These must be filled out except for the physical form and submitted to:
Carolyn Bostick at carolyn.bostick@beaufort.k12.sc.us

Children must participate in the age appropriate school that they are zoned for. We have had great praise from our judges in the past and I would encourage anyone who is interested to get a jump start now. Many of the upper level fairs are scheduled in February and March.

Please email this morning if you would like to get on the list.  All who are on the list and going please arrive no later that 9:50am, our guided tour starts at 10am.
Boone Hall Plantation Field Trip
Join others at Boone Hall Plantation on Friday, Nov. 9th for a field trip. We will meet at the check- in tent at 10 a.m. and there we will be assigned a tour guide to show us around and share some great info with the kids about the plantation and the civil war days. The tour will be appropriate for various aged children. Fee: $9 for students 6 and up, chaperons $7. All teachers are admitted for free. I can sign anyone up for the trip and you will be admitted as a teacher for free if we get names on the lists prior to arriving. My contact person mentioned you may also “show up” whenever you like without any reservations. If you do not go with group, be prepared to give proof of being a teacher. It is not necessary for you to pay until you arrive at the tent.

If you would like to meet there with the group, e-mail me at cbcevelyn@gmail.com

Visit Boone Hall on the web for more info about “The Living History Field Trip Day”.
We have attended before and it is a great experience. I also mentioned that some families may be bringing younger children and the contact person said that is no problem. If you are on the guided tour he said we will be welcome to take a break and join in at a later time if a break is needed. There is also a picnic area available. If you have questions, please e-mail me.”

science POC needed for CBC

From: Melissa Carter

For those of you who have been at CBC for a period of time, you might
know me as the “science lady”. I have enjoyed and loved providing
science classes and opportunities for the homeschoolers of CBC for
many years, but God has other plans and I must pass the baton. So, if
you are interested in being the “science point of contact” for science
fairs and robotics, please email me renikcarter@yahoo.com or give me a call at 843-812-4438.
I have a lot of science resources that I would love to pass on to the
homeschoolers of CBC for classes or to be checked out. Thanks for your
time!
Praise be to God who made it all!!
Melissa Carter
