Math & Science Center

The Lakeshore Math & Science Center operates a four-year program that provides special opportunities and course work to students with aptitude and interest in science and mathematics. While working in groups, the students will embark upon a variety of projects both in and outside of the classroom. Learning is enhanced with guest speakers,  many hands-on activities, and fostering student leadership. In addition to the participation of Lakeshore students, the Math & Science Center is also open to students from other area schools. The MSC brochure provides more details.

Admission

Students apply to the Center in January of their 8th grade year. Applications will be reviewed by a district selection committee. Admission to the Center is based on student responses to written portions of the application, teacher recommendations, grades, and SAT scores. Students must have satisfactorily completed Algebra.
