Impact Statement
With student-to-counselor ratios of more than 800:1 in many California schools, children in under-served communities are far less likely to receive the advice and counsel necessary for them to pursue their dreams. It is, therefore, essential for parents to be more involved in their children’s education and to have access to resources that enable them to prepare youth for college and career opportunities.

Program Description:
The Gateway Website (Educate-CA.org) is an interactive and engaging program designed to help bridge the "content divide" by providing essential academic resources in a user-friendly web-based format. Recently deployed in a new state-of-the-art format, the latest Gateway Website release is an integral extension and enrichment of the curriculum taught in the classroom.
The website provides the best Internet resources in a streamlined guide featuring hundreds of pertinent and informative web links. Students use the Gateway website to search high quality homework help for classroom topics like math, science, grammar, language and others. There are links to sites that explain the college application process, from what high school classes to take and when, to how to choose your college.
The Gateway Website features a powerful reference center that provides immediate access to the world's best libraries, museums, and current news sources. Students bookmark their “Favorite” sites to easily save, organize and edit links to web sites that are frequently visited or are important for occasional homework reference use.
