  Gila County School Superintendent Linda O’Dell would like to congratulate the many students of Gila County who recently participated in the Gila County Regional Science Fair on Thursday, March 3 in Payson.  Thirty-three students will be representing Gila County with 23 projects at the Arizona Science and Engineering Fair from April 6-8 at the Phoenix Convention Center. For a list of all projects recognized at the Gila County Regional Science Fair, please visit www.gilacountyesa.org.

  Superintendent O’Dell would also like to thank all the volunteers who served as science fair judges this year. The judges not only scored the science projects, but also interviewed the students and provided constructive feedback and inspirational words. Sincere gratitude goes to Jeff Baer, Carrie Bartling, Kelly Bedson, Joe Bowman, Norman Coloma, Jake Garrett, Wayne Gorry, Lani Hall, Bruce Johnson, Cindy Johnson, Carol Jones, Diane Mason, Greg McKelvey, Lisa Modglin, Jerry Nicholls, Jean Revie, Dr. Harold Rush, Jacque Sanders, Dr. Larry Spratling, John A.

  Superintendent O’Dell would also like to thank the Payson Unified School District for hosting this year’s Gila County Regional Science Fair on its high school campus.  PUSD employees, including Principal Brian Mabb and other high school team members, went above and beyond in accommodating Gila County Schools Office staff and contributing to the success of this year’s fair. 

  Finally, Superintendent O’Dell would like to express her gratitude to the parents, teachers, and science fair coordinators that mentored the students and supported their growth and success as young scientists and inventors.

  Best of luck to Gila County’s representatives at the Arizona Science and Engineering Fair next month!

  Sincerely,

/s/ Linda O’Dell and the Office of the Gila County School Superintendent
