School IRB
(Internal Review Board)
The IRB has been simplified.
Each IRB needs:
- A medical or mental
health professional. This can be the school nurse or a guidance counselor.
- A school administrator. (A Principal or vice-principal)
- An educator. This does not have to be a science teacher
although it is encouraged to have one. A teacher cannot serve where
their students are involved, so most schools have two
teachers on the IRB, so that each teacher can serve for the
other teacher's students on the IRB.
Please read the following document:

Scientific Review Committees (SRC) and Institutional Review
Boards (IRB)
If
your school does not have a science fair, or if you are home
schooled, you may contact us directly for assistance. If you
have questions on approval of your project before you start, or
if your school does NOT do science fair and therefore does not have an IRB, please send your name,
email address, grade (6-8 or 9-12), school, and your complete
research plan to src@tcrsf.org.
