FHS student wins Best of Show for STEM project at the county fair

FALLBROOK – Fallbrook High School student Viviana Lasley, age 14, won the "Best of Show" ribbon for her science, technology, engineering and math project entry at this year's San Diego County Fair. Lasley's award was for her construction of a life-size, working jack-in-the-box based on this year's fair theme, "The Wizard of Oz."

Her exhibit featured a pop-up tin woodsman and was named "Some Fair Over the Rainbow." It is the fifth year in-a-row that she has won the best of show award for her creations, which she began entering in fair competitions at the age of 10.
