Our first-place winners are eligible to take their projects to the West Virginia State Social Studies Fair at the Charleston Coliseum and Convention Center in Charleston, West Virginia on April 28, 2026.




We are especially pleased to recognize our top finishers. In the Grade 8 competition, a student from Warm Springs Middle School was named second alternate. In the Grades 10–12 competition, students from Berkeley Springs High School earned fourth alternate, second alternate, and tenth place. By finishing in the top ten in the Grades 10–12 division, our tenth-place finisher qualified to participate in State Math Field Day, which will be held at WV Wesleyan on April 18.
