Regeneron STS
The Regeneron STS (Science Talent Search) is one of the most prestigious research competitions for high school students. A submission of an original research project entails writing a full research paper around 14 to 18 pages. This stuff is no joke, and with hundreds of thousands of dollars handed out every year as awards, it shouldn't be.
As a side note, students who participate in research programs usually take their projects home to send to the competitions. If this is something you want to do, you may have to reconsider which summer programs you want to apply to.

Synopsis Science Fair
Synopsis is the regional Science Fair for South Bay high schools. In this competition, you will present a tri-fold or poster to judges in different categories. It is expected that you come into the school year already having completed a project or busy finishing one, because the competition will be in March.
Students who place in their category are invited to the California State Science Fair, and then the International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF). Lots of money and stuff to be won.
We are finding a teacher to sponsor our trips and still working out the logistics of the competition. If you wish to participate or need some advice, find us at meetings and we will do our best to help you.
