About Us

Mission

The Westchester Regional Middle School Science and Engineering Fair (WRMSSEF) is dedicated to fostering curiosity and innovation among middle school students through scientific inquiry. Our mission is to provide a platform for young minds to explore the world of science and engineering, cultivate critical thinking, and inspire future leaders in STEAM. Through mentorship, collaboration, and competition, we aim to empower students to solve real-world challenges and to contribute to the advancement of knowledge and technology.

Antidiscrimination Statement

WRMSSEF is an equal opportunity event for all participants, regardless of age, ancestry, color, disability (mental and physical), gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, medical condition, national origin, race and religious creed or other difference. Judges and volunteers are responsible for maintaining an atmosphere that is conducive to this principle. We entrust the adult members of our community to act as stewards to this end, as it is critical to WRMSSEF’s effort to achieve an environment that offers equal opportunity to all, free of discrimination.
