The Bush Elementary turned into a laboratory on Friday as third, fourth and fifth grade students showcased their science fair projects. Students tested electricity, respiratory rates, plants' reactions to acids and bases and much more in their experiments. Children in other grades took time on Friday to learn from the young scientists about their hypotheses and results.
