Building Strong Foundations

Since its inception in 1986, the Gateway Institute
for Pre-College Education has gained national
recognition for its programs that prepare lowincome
and minority high school students for
college and the pursuit of health and sciencerelated
careers.
The Gateway Institute for Pre-College Education
is a partnership of the New York City
Department of Education and the City College of
the City University of New York.

letter from the Directors
For the past twenty-five years, the Gateway Institute for Pre-College Education has
worked to increase the number of minority students who successfully complete
high school and make the transition to college and post-graduate programs leading
to medical, health and science-related careers. The organization has grown from
four high school programs in 1986 to twelve programs and three schools in 2009
with an enrollment of approximately 3,000 students per year. The key to
Gateway’s success is a programmatic model of academic rigor led by a team of
dedicated educators working with cohorts of students in an extended school day
and an expanded school year.
While our resolve and our purpose have been steady, we have learned over the
years that it takes more than good intentions—more even than good ideas. The
key to long-term sustainable success in providing quality education is the
commitment of partners who create, build and test models that work. Over the
years, Gateway has worked with many partners including private foundations,
public programs and academic, scientific and health-care related organizations.
What we learned in the process is that it is critical to test ideas by putting them
into practice and carefully evaluating the results. A good idea is only as strong as
the result that it yields.
Gateway has a strong foundation of experience and support to expand and
replicate models with proven track records. Two years ago, Gateway successfully
launched a program at the John D. O’Bryant School of Math and Science in Boston
in partnership with more than twenty research centers, hospitals, and colleges in
the area and with a substantial financial commitment by the Massachusetts
legislature. This year, Gateway added programs at two high schools—Francis Lewis
and EBT—to its New York City roster.
The original goal of Gateway to provide minority students with the opportunity
to advance into careers in medicine, science, and health care-related industries is
as relevant now as it was in 1986. Building on a strong foundation, Gateway will
continue to break barriers and ensure that students have access not only to the
opportunities but to the tools and preparation needed to achieve their goals.

Strong
Foundations
Over the years, Gateway has earned respect and funding from numerous
organizations. This support has helped build a viable and sustainable model for
underserved minority high school students and the educational professionals
that serve them. Gateway provides not only the resources for students to excel
in math, science, and medicine, but also the discipline to thrive in college and
graduate studies. The following features are the foundation of Gateway’s success:
Academically Rigorous Curriculum stresses the importance of
advanced placement courses, Regents curricula, longer school days,
tutorials, enriched guidance, and an extended school year to help lay a
foundation for academic success.
A Team Approach joins students with a team of selected teachers
and guidance counselors who carefully monitor student progress
throughout the four years of high school. Gateway parents and guardians
also play a central role in working with teachers and school
administrators to help their children succeed.
Placements and Internships offer students after school and
summer access to universities, hospitals, research laboratories and other
institutions that provide career and college-oriented programs that
encourage interaction with adults in professional settings.
College Planning for Gateway students begins when they enter the
program. Students participate in test preparation for standardized
exams, financial aid workshops, college campus visits, and the Gateway
College Fair.
Measurable Results allow Gateway to track the effectiveness of its
model and demonstrate the one result that really matters: successful
students. Follow- up surveys have documented that 97% of the 3,000
graduates of the Gateway program attended college, with 80% graduating
from college within five years (versus 30% graduation rate nationally). Of
the 85% of its graduates that Gateway has tracked, 10% attend medical
school, 30 times the national rate for a ninth grade cohort.

Long-term Partners
Gateway would like to acknowledge the strong support of its long-time funders.
These partners are critical to the success of the Institute, providing resources
for organizational support, professional development, new programs, and
targeted initiatives. Grateful recognition goes to the following supporters:
The Irene Diamond Fund has been a driving force for more than
twenty years. Aaron and Irene Diamond, whose philanthropy in health
issues and education was legendary, supported Gateway from its
inception with initial funding from the Aaron Diamond Foundation, and
later the Irene Diamond Fund. The support permitted the development
of the infrastructure and many of the educational innovations that are
fundamental to Gateway today.
New York State Department of Education offers major
support through its New York State Science and Technology
Entry Program (STEP). Gateway was among the first programs
funded by STEP when it began as New York State’s legislative initiative to
increase the number of under-represented minorities pursuing degrees
in science and technology. Gateway is now the largest of the state’s fiftyone
STEP-funded programs.
The Sherman Fairchild Foundation has funded a series of grants,
providing time and resources to address a number of issues, especially
adolescent literacy, which is now integrated into all Gateway initiatives.
Funds were also used for the development of an alumni network, the
expansion into new stand-alone schools, and the inclusion of technology
in the classroom. The Foundation has provided substantial support for
management and strategic planning and is currently funding an initiative
aimed at integrating biology and chemistry into a molecular biology
curriculum.

Current Initiatives
All Gateway initiatives are based on the model of rigorous academic engagement
which supports the organization’ s aim to ensure that students are ready for college
and graduate studies. This year, Gateway also continued to support highly targeted
programs which produced instructional models that can be used throughout the
Institute’s schools and programs. The following four programs demonstrate the wide
range of Gateway initiatives.
Sherman fairchild foundation
One of Gateway’s long-time partners, the Sherman Fairchild Foundation,
awarded a three-year grant for the development of advanced science courses.
Working at Brooklyn Tech with Dr. Philip Jeffery, a Harvard Medical School
graduate and Board certified physician, the program completed its second
year. Dr. Jeffery, a chemistry and math teacher, is the Gateway coordinator at
Brooklyn Tech, where he pioneered his one year integrated course in
chemistry and biology. Other highlights include a medical-school level
anatomy course and the launch of the Gateway Research Symposium, where
students present research projects. The early results are impressive. In the
pilot year, Gateway freshmen fared better on the New York State Regent’s
Exam in Chemistry than Brooklyn Tech sophomores.
Robert Wood Johnson Foundation
The Gateway Medical House, now in it's third year at A. Philip Randolph High
School, is a program designed to introduce students to a wide range of health
careers. Funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, it represents a
partnership with the Gateway Institute, the Department of Education, Hunter
College, Bronx Community College, Sophie Davis School of Biomedical
Education, Harlem Hospital and the Mount Sinai Medical Center, a long-time
Gateway partner. Program activities include internships where students
shadow health professionals, workshops with faculty from Hunter College
focused on the academic requirements for many health professions, tutoring
and mentoring by Sophie Davis students, and college trips to meet health
care faculty. An evaluation of the program indicates a high degree of success.
A survey conducted by Gateway staff indicated that 85-90% of the current
participants have a continued interest in healthcare professions.
6

Shippy Foundation
With support from the Shippy Foundation, Gateway established the Shippy
Scholars program to expose Gateway students with strong academic
achievement to highly selective colleges. Admission to medical school or
PhD program is a goal for each Gateway Shippy Scholar. Based on
academic achievement and an overall record of college-related activities,
scholars are selected from Gateway programs and schools in the spring of
the sophomore year. Seventy students were accepted in Spring 2009, an
increase from the first year when forty-eight students participated. The
program features workshops, college test preparation, college visits and
Gateway alumni mentoring.
Bristol-Myers Squibb Foundation
Gateway concluded a three-year grant from the Bristol-Myers Squibb
Foundation to address the growing problem of obesity and diabetes among
urban minority students. In addition to projects aimed at promoting fitness
and nutrition among students at A. Philip Randolph, Bayard Rustin
Educational Complex, Clara Barton, and the Urban Assembly of Music and
Art, the program worked directly with DOE Food Services on the
development of healthy school meals.
New Directions
Increasingly, foundation support has been aimed at replicating the Gateway
model. The following grants demonstrate how Gateway can be adapted in New
York and beyond.
Carnegie Corporation of New York
In January 2009, Gateway was awarded a planning grant from the Carnegie
Corporation of New York to explore the potential expansion of the
Gateway model to other cities. Building on twenty-five years of experience,
the grant has helped define the key elements necessary for replication
including college readiness, an enriched curriculum, and a focus on
summer and after-school internships and placements. Professional
development for Gateway principals, teachers, coordinators and guidance
counselors, support in identifying and recruiting qualified students, and a
critical method of evaluation are additional aspects of replication.
7

Carnegie continued
It is significant to note that Gateway has already replicated its model in
Boston in a partnership with the Boston Department of Education, the John
D. O’Bryant School of Mathematics and Science and MASCO (Medical
Academic and Scientific Community Organization), which represents the
Longwood Medical and Academic Area including the Dana-Farber Cancer
Institute and Brigham Hospital. In addition to Boston, Gateway has been in
discussion with cities including Baltimore, Atlanta, Chicago, and San Francisco
as potential sites for replication of the Gateway model.
New York State Department of Health
To help address the under-representation of minority students in medical
school, the New York State Department of Health awarded Gateway a
planning grant to create a Medical School Pipeline to attract, support, and
prepare high school students interested in medical careers. Working closely
with the Vice Chancellor of Instruction at the DOE, the five-year pipeline
will track the development of students entering the program in the summer
preceeding their junior year of high school. Participants will be provided with
academic support and enrichment opportunities, as well as extensive medical
school preparation programs. When the program is implemented, key
features of the Gateway Medical Pipeline will include summer placements,
progress reviews, data tracking, and evaluation.
8
Medical Partnerships
In addition to formal grants aimed at replicating Gateway’s success, the
Institute was featured at a national meeting of the Institute for Healthcare
Improvement, whose members represent a consortium of more than 4000
healthcare providers. The meeting led to conversations with hospitals and
school systems to explore ways to use Gateway’s model throughout the
United States. Other organizations that have expressed an interest in
working with Gateway on a national level are the American Medical
Association, the American Hospital Association, the National Medical
Association, and the Association of American Medical Colleges. Closer to
home on Long Island, Hofstra is launching the Hofstra University School of
Medicine, which hopes to admit its first class in 2011. Gateway is analyzing
a variety of opportunities to build a network that includes the new medical
school and high schools in Queens and Long Island.

Shippy Scholars
The Shippy Scholars Program was created to increase the number of students who qualify for admission
to highly selective colleges and ultimately for admission to medical school or PhD programs. The Scholars,
who are among the top performing students in Gateway, are selected from all schools and programs in
the spring of their sophomore year. Shippy Scholars take advantage of a variety of opportunities open
to all Gateway students such as trips to college campuses
and enrichment field trips. The students, however, receive an
enhanced level of services specifically designed for them
including:
Camp College: Scholars attended a three-day program at
Marist College in Poughkeepsie, NY that included workshops
on financial aid, admissions issues, strategies for the college
interview, and college-level writing.
Shippy Mentors: Gateway has an extensive network of
alumni who act as mentors for Shippy Scholars during the
college selection process and during their college years.
Test Prep: Standardized test preparation workshops Shippy Scholars with Junot Díaz, the Pulitzer prizewinning
Dominican author and MIT Professor after

a reading at Wellesley College. Pictured left to right:
and SAT exams and strategies for taking courses online. Claire Wan (FLHS '10), Junot Diaz, Saudi Garcia
(FLHS '10), and Shrabanti Mandal (BREC '11).

Scholarships & Awards
Gateway students have a strong legacy of attracting scholarship funding and recognition. While all of these
achievements are important, Gateway students stand out for the quality of the honors they have received.
This year, Jaylene Saul (STAR) was one of fifteen seniors in New York City to receive the Seinfeld
Scholarship. Granted by actor Jerry Seinfeld’s foundation, the scholarship provides four years of funding to
a school of the student’s choice and covers all costs including boarding, books, and supplies. Schnaude
Dorizan (Clara Barton) joins previous Gateway students as the recipient of a Meyerhoff Scholarship at the
University of Maryland, a four-year program that provides support for African-American male
undergraduate students committed to obtaining PhD degrees in math, science, and engineering. Another
program that already knows the value of Gateway graduates is the Posse Scholars Program, a four-year full
tuition program. Congratulations go to recipients Anderson Antoine (Science Skills), Ayobami Fatade (Clara
Barton), Rosmel Hernandez (BREC), and Glenford Robinson (Brooklyn Tech). These represent only a
fraction of the honors and funding that Gateway students earn.
Placements & Internships
In addition to working with outstanding teachers and coordinators, Gateway recognized early on that
students needed access to exceptional after-school programs and summer internships and placements.
Over the years, Gateway has become a trusted source for excellent students who regularly participate in
highly competitive programs. The following are only a few of the programs and placements where Gateway
students earned spots this year: Yale Medical School (SMDEP and Dental), Leadership Enterprise for a
Diverse America, Bellevue Shadow and MED Programs, Cooper Union Summer Engineering Program, Johns
Hopkins Center for Talented Youth, the (MS)squared Program at Andover, Harlem Children’s Society, Merck
Summer Institute of Bioethics at Rutgers, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, and Mount Sinai Medical School.
College Preparation
College preparation is an important aspect of the Gateway model. While the annual Gateway College Fair
brings dozens of college recruiters to New York City each spring, students also travel to numerous college
campuses throughout the year where they meet with recruiters, and financial aid and academic advisors.
They are invited to sit in on classes and meet with professors in health-related areas for an accurate
assessment of the road ahead. In addition to numerous trips to colleges in the tri-state area, Gateway
student visited the following schools: Amherst, Babson, Boston College, Brandeis, Clark, Dartmouth,
Georgetown, George Washington, Harvard, Johns Hopkins, University of Maryland, Massachusetts College
of Pharmacy and Health Sciences, Northeastern, Tufts, Wellesley, University of Pennsylvania, and Villanova.
Enrichment Trips
Gateway students are encourage to participate in both academic and non-academic field trips that excite
the imagination and create learning opportunities. This year, Gateway sponsored many trips including the
following: A Tale of Two Cities, The Lion King and West Side Story on Broadway, Bodies: The Exhibition at South
Street Seaport, the Dolan DNA Learning Center, the Medieval Times Castle in Lyndhurst, New Jersey,
Fordham's Rose Hill campus and the Bronx Zoo, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Philadelphia's Franklin
Institute, and the Hudson River's "Mystic Whaler" Sloop.

Gateway Delivers
In addition to its hands-on approach working with students, a critical component
of the Gateway program is to provide on-going support and tools for teachers,
principals, and guidance counselors.
Professional Development
Gateway conducted professional development meetings for coordinators and
guidance counselors that focused on protocols for analyzing data about student
performance, recruitment strategies, peer tutoring, and student leadership.
Another feature of the workshops was aimed at effective ways to develop student
skills in note taking, listening, test preparation, and study techniques. Gateway also
conducted a workshop for Gateway math and science teachers that focused on
the new geometry curriculum and strategies for integrating biology and chemistry.
The workshop also included segments on using medical cases in the Living
Environment curriculum and exposing art forgeries through chemical analysis. A
third workshop series for nearly 200 non-Gateway teachers, guidance counselors
and assistant principals focused on integrating listening skills into the curriculum.
Literacy
Gateway worked closely with teachers at Queens Gateway, Jamaica, and the new
program at EBT as part of a literacy program. Initiatives included techniques to
improve PSAT/SAT writing scores, the development of a Writer’s Resource Guide,
and instructional strategies to teach academic vocabulary. At EBT, Gateway
worked with new science and English teachers to address the literacy demands
on the Science Regent’s exam and to develop a science vocabulary to increase
understanding of science texts. Additionally, Gateway conducted a writing center
for Shippy Scholars for the development and presentation of their college
admissions application essays.

Recognition
The Business Higher Education Forum (BHEF) selected Gateway as the first
program in the country to garner the accolade of “Programs That Work.” The
organization represents a consortium of Fortune 500 CEOs, college and university
presidents, and foundation executives who are looking for innovative and viable
solutions to major issues in education. The forum, funded by the Bill & Melinda
Gates Foundation to support efforts to build a national network of corporate
and philanthropic leaders, focused on college readiness, access, and success,
particularly in science, technology, engineering and math.
