Science Research
Shaker High School has started a "University" in the High School Science Research program. In this program, students are offered the opportunity to select a scientific topic and perform original research. In this three-year program, students first gather background information, find a mentor, perform their research, and reach a conclusion based on the results.
The program is run by Biology teacher Nathaniel Covert. A symposium is held in June each year, where Shaker students, teachers, mentors, and parents are welcome.

Famous quotes containing the words science and/or research:
“Science is feasible when the variables are few and can be enumerated; when their combinations are distinct and clear. We are tending toward the condition of science and aspiring to do it. The artist works out his own formulas; the interest of science lies in the art of making science.”
—Paul Valéry (1871–1945)
“The great question that has never been answered, and which I have not yet been able to answer, despite my thirty years of research into the feminine soul, is “What does a woman want?””
—Sigmund Freud (1856–1939)
