Lake Region — Each year Peterson-Warren Academy's science department sponsors a science fair so that the students may enhance their understanding and application of the scientific method beyond the textbook. Projects were displayed by students beginning with fifth grade through the academy. Projects were judged by professionals in the science arena who work throughout the Detroit-Metro area. Judges were given a specific set of criteria on which to judge each project. Elementary projects were categorized separately from academy projects, and winners received first, second, or third prize ribbons as well as ribbons for participation. Parents and guests were also invited to observe the displays.

The winners for the elementary category first prize were: Nydia Jessup and Ellaura Reevers, How Plants Grow Fast; second prize: Ryan Price and Michael Shelton, Fruits Make Electricity; and third prize: Tracy Buggs, How Does a Generator Work? The winners for first, second, and third prize ribbons in the academy were Kara Baxter, Taste Buds; June Ragland and Imani Jones, Evaporation and Humidity; and Tyler Dorsett, Faster Than Cold Water, respectively.
