=Examples of Student Research and Scientists to Connect with= [|The Journal of Experimental Secondary Science] JESS is a professionally reviewed academic journal, which exclusively publishes original research articles written by high school students. Submissions are reviewed by college professors and research scientists, who are chosen based on their expertise in the particular area of science that each article addresses. We are recognized by the Library of Congress, the NSTA, and all articles are indexed on multiple journal databases designed for research scientists. Our mission, through our rigorous review process, is to teach students to write articles in the academically accepted format, to promote student research, improve science literacy, and to display the most exceptional works that are products of students, their teachers, and the schools they attend. A publication in JESS shows a student’s true scientific aptitude and is, of course, an outstanding addition to a student’s college application.
