HOW DO STUDENTS AND CHAPERONES REGISTER TO ATTEND?

Student registration: 

  • Students should ask their science teacher if they can be included in the school’s delegation (of just one or up to ten students)
  • Students may attend as a presenter or an “observer” (non-presenter):
    • If applying to present, select registration type “Student Participant” when you register.
    • If NOT applying to present, select registration type “Other/Guest” and then on the “JSHS Custom Questions” page, select “Student who is not applying to present”. 
  • Those applying to present their research will have until January 5, 2023, to modify their online application with an abstract, Statement of Outside Assistance form, short-answer questions, and a 3-minute video for consideration for oral and poster presentations. This is a competitive process. Applicants will be informed by January 23, 2023, as to whether they have been selected as a presenter.

Teacher registration (chaperone or non-chaperone): 

  • If you have student(s) applying to compete, select the category “JSHS Teacher” or “JSHS Mentor” (whichever you prefer/is more appropriate) when you register.
  • If you do NOT have students applying to compete, select the category “JSHS Teacher” when you register.

Parent/guardian registration (chaperone as needed):

  • If the student’s school is not able to provide a chaperone for the school’s delegation, a parent can be a chaperone.
  • Select the registration category “Other/Guest” and then on the “JSHS Custom Questions” page select “Parent/Guardian”.
