My Project

In 2025, our school hosted its inaugural Psychology Fair. More than 200 students researched contemporary topics in the field of psychology, designed an original psychology experiment based on their research, and collected data to see if their hypothesis was supported by evidence. They then shared results with the school community, creating visually engaging display boards that explained their research questions and findings.

The display boards will support our 2026 Psych Fair students in sharing the exciting, interesting, and in-depth research they undertake as psychology students at PHHS.

Quality trifold displays aren't cheap, and by providing them to students, we are able to ensure that financial hardship won't prevent our students from sharing their research findings, as we encourage students to take ownership of their learning.
