My Students
Our students are motivated, remarkable young people. They are canny scientists and observant, critical citizens who understand their role as societal movers and shakers.
Our student body is culturally rich and diverse.
Our students come from all over Chicago, but have their sights set beyond our city. They see themselves as transformative agents of change. They know that to make our world a better place, they need a great education and are always working to make that dream a reality.
My Project
At my school, our students can take part in a robust, immersive biotechnology course. Students analyze DNA, diagnose genetic disorders, even genetically engineer bacteria just like it's done in a biomedical research lab.
This year, it's unclear if our students will get this hands-on experience that can set them up for success in a college science course or future career.
Familiarity with the tools used in professional labs can give students confidence and inspire them to pursue careers in science and medicine. With the right classroom camera, students can gain important insight and knowledge about these materials and discover just what's possible in science research!
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
