BPS STEM Fair – Expo Portal

Putting a focus on science and engineering is a major goal of the Boston Public Schools. We want all students to be scientifically literate and to develop an understanding of fundamental science and engineering concepts. Each year the Boston STEM Fair provides an opportunity for students to “do” STEM. As the students prepare for the fair, they not only learn important science and engineering concepts but they also learn how scientists and engineers investigate the world.

The 2027 Science Fair will be on Saturday, March (TBD), 2027.

During the fair, which will take place at the Dearborn STEM Academy, we run a tabletop activity expo alongside the student’s projects, in which various STEM organizations demonstrate a STEM-related exhibit or short activity. The 2027 STEM activity expo will take place from 12:30pm – 2:30pm.

If you are interested in participating this year, sign-ups will open in January 2027. 

As the date grows closer, we will send additional information about final logistics and program information to registered participants. Please be aware that you may not sell things at the expo, but may give out flyers and/or prizes. If you need to cancel your participation at any time, please email Nicolas Fuchs.

Schedule:
Please plan to arrive at the Dearborn STEM Academy by 12:00pm – for expo set-up. The expo will run from 12:30pm – 2:30pm. Free parking will be provided.
