MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Texas -- Education for Tomorrow Alliance (EfTA) is signing up volunteers for the 28th Annual SCI://TECH Exposition, Wild About Science.

On February 2, Education for Tomorrow Alliance (EfTA) and the Conroe Independent School District (CISD) will host the largest science fair in Texas.

About 400 judges are needed to support the 1,500 student participants in the Chevron Phillips Chemical Senior High and Entergy Junior High Science Fairs. SCI://TECH is a collaboration between Education for Tomorrow Alliance, CISD, and area private schools that engages 5,000 K-12 students in 13 science, technology, engineering, and math activities over four weekends with the support of community volunteers.

On Friday, science fair volunteers are needed to judge life and physical science categories at the Lone Star Convention Center. Shifts start at 7:45 am, 9:30 am, and 2:15 pm and last about three hours each. No experience is needed, and training is provided on-site. Volunteers can register online at www.efta-us.org/volunteer. It is a great opportunity to interact with and show support for local students. Please sign up to encourage bright young minds!
