Student Attendance Zones
​for the Cobb/Paulding Regional Science Fair

Per Georgia Science and Engineering Fair rules, middle and high school home-school/cyber students who reside in Cobb or Paulding Counties must participate in the local school fair of the school they are zoned to attend. If that school does not offer a science fair, the student should participate in the next nearest local school fair. This also applies to private school students whose school does not offer a science fair.

​Please email Dr. Christian Cali ([email protected]) if you need help contacting your locally-zoned school.
