The Cleveland Clinic Foundation (CCF) proposes to further three of the broad goals highlighted in the National Science Education Standards: improve science literacy among students at an urban high school (John Hay High School, JHHS), four middle schools, and eight primary schools which are the feeder schools to JHHS; ensure that JHHS students are able to pass the newly created Ohio State Proficiency Examination in Science (Proficiency), thus promoting the successful use of state benchmarks and standards in science education; and assist the JHHS science faculty in promoting science literacy goals through expert teaching of the innovative Medical Biological Health Science curriculum, and the Standard Comprehensive Science Curriculum, developed collaboratively with CCF researchers and scientists, and offered at JHHS. Further support to the third goal of faculty development will also occur within the primary and middle feeder schools to JHHS.

CCF will accomplish these goals through the Cleveland Clinic/John Hay Education Partnership (the Partnership), a 10-year, comprehensive Education Partnership created to prepare students to seek and succeed in careers in science and health care and to promote the health of the students, their families, and their neighborhood. HHMI funding will create a Science and Research Initiative (SRI) within the Partnership by supporting: an SRI Student Scholar Program offering individually structured scientific research learning experiences at CCF in the summer, and science-oriented student activities in the academic year for JHHS students; and SRI Faculty Scholar appointed at JHHS who will collaborate with CCF researchers and scientists, Partnership staff and others to create continuing professional education assessment and evaluation activities; and a Nationally Recognized Science Educator contracted to undertake a rigorous, long-term evaluation of the Partnership, and the impact on the CCF scientists, the JHHS and feeder school science f
