SUMMARY:Science Fair
DESCRIPTION:Share your knowledge and experiments! We are excited to offer the BHC Science Fair for the 2025-2026 school year for all ages and grade levels. We do require you to register your student’s project by September 22 if possible. The $5 registration fee will help BHC cover the expenses of the venue\, judges\, and prizes – yes\, this event includes some friendly competition! \nScience Fair Information\nAll projects must be a controlled research experiment that follows the scientific method. This is not for models or for research complications. If the project is not an experiment\, your student will receive constructive comments but will not be eligible for judging. Watch videos for more information about the scientific method: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor more information about controlled experiments: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCLICK HERE for lesson on Controlled Experiments. \n\n\n\nProject Ideas\n\nScienceBuddies.org – click on Find A Project Idea\, then browse by topic or grade level\nEducation.com/Science-Fair\nPinterest.com – just make sure it’s a controlled experiment\n\n\nScience Fair Guidelines\n\nMake sure the project is age appropriate. The student should understand what they are doing and be able to discuss it with you. The student should pick a project that they are interested in and do the work themselves as much as possible.\nPlease do not harm any living things for your project.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA student may enter just one project. Students may work together on a project\, but the project will be judged for the age group of the oldest child involved.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProjects will be judged and prizes awarded for winners. All participants will receive a certificate for participating.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAll presentations must be in English and the student must be prepared to answer age-specific questions about their project during the judging process. Make sure to write everything in your own words to avoid plagiarism.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYou do not have to have your project judged if you do not want to. Just mark that on the registration form.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe presentation must be presented on a tri-fold\, stand alone cardboard display board that can be found at Wal-Mart and other local stores for around $3.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease follow the below example as closely as possible to simplify judging. If the child cannot write\, someone else can write for them or they can draw pictures to demonstrate what they did. Photographs are also good to use.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYou can bring materials to show the judge\, but they must fit easily in front of the poster\, they must not need to be plugged in or require other resources\, and they must not make a mess.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOn fair day\, please be there at 1:00 to get set up set up and ready for judging. The judges will walk around to each project and discuss with the student.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease note that the measurements for the poster board are 48″ long and 36″ tall. The diagram below has a mistake- the middle section measures 24″\, not 36″.

SUMMARY:Back to School Photos
DESCRIPTION:Tired of the same front porch back-to-school photo that you always take at home? Let us take the pressure off on that first day back by booking a back to school mini session with LB Studios! \nLB Studios is excited to offer school age children back to school photos this year! The sessions will be held in Leeds\, AL on Saturday Aug 9th. The backdrop will include school buses. Props provided will be things like an old school desk\, books\, a globe\, a chalkboard with your child’s new grade\, etc. Feel free to bring your child’s back pack and lunch box or bring no props at all. \nThese sessions are just $50 and include two digital files of your choice. Additional files can be purchased for $25 each. Siblings are welcome. The sessions are only 5 minutes long\, so if you have several children it may be best to book more than one session (I would recommend booking an extra slot for 3 or more children). I’m looking forward to starting this new tradition each year and can’t wait to celebrate the new school year!

SUMMARY:Alabama Homeschool Prom
DESCRIPTION:Where?  Gabrella Manor \n\n\n\nWhen? First Thursday in May\, May 1\, 2025 \n\n\n\n8-11 pm \n\n\n\nDuration: 3 hr \n\n\n\n8-11 pm (note the start time\, it gets darker later in May and this also allows the kids to eat before Prom starts) \n\n\n\nCost: $70 per person (pay at the door)\, cash or check (if check make out to Gabrella Manor) \n\n\n\nOpen to any Homeschooler 9th grade and up\, and a date\, the date does not have to be homeschooled. Many kids come in groups that is fine as well. \n\n\n\nDress: Semi-formal:  boys need a suit or sport coat\, Most girls will be in a prom-type dress. \n\n\n\nNote: I trust the parents on the dress\, if the parents are ok with the dress\, I can be ok with the dress as well. \n\n\n\nSnacks and drinks provided\, NOT DINNER. \n\n\n\nWe have multiple Chaperones and everyone there who works at Gabrella is very familiar with our group by now and will have eyes open at all times. We have paid guards in uniform from the Sheriff’s Dept as well. Any parent who feels they simply must come with their child must pay to get in and be dressed for the dance. \n\n\n\nWe do allow parents to come in about 15 min before the dance to take photos and stay about 15 min after the dance begins\, then we ask them to leave if they did not pay to stay… \n\n\n\nPlease put this on your school and personal calendar\, and help spread the word to your group. Feel free to invite any other homeschool kids you know of. Getting the word out is the hardest part of the whole thing really!

When Bernice the Butterfly finds an abandoned house in the woods\, she sets out to make it her home. Soon she is joined by Millie the mouse\, Fred the frog\, Richie the rabbit\, and Rudy the rooster.
