The Region IV Social Studies Fair was held on Saturday, March 16th, at Eastern Greenbrier Middle School. Participants previously won first place in their category at the school and county levels before advancing to the regional level. A total of 84 projects from 4 counties in our region competed in this year's fair. The results are available at https://5il.co/2gqpw.
Greenbrier County had 27 first-place winners, nine second-place finishers, and four third-place finishers. The first-place winners in their category, division, and type will advance to the WV State Social Studies Fair, which will take place on April 10th at the Charleston Coliseum. There, they will compete against other first-place winners from the other regions in our state.
The Social Studies Fairs provide students the opportunity to ask essential questions, recognize patterns of behavior, think critically, create solutions, predict outcomes, and draw conclusions to help them learn to solve problems.
