People On The Move: From East To Engineering

Jacob Haynes Lands California Scholarship

Jacob Haynes, a member of the sophomore class of Project Greer Street at East High School, was selected this summer to participate in Santa Clara University’s Summer Engineering Seminar (“SES”) program in Santa Clara, Calif. Haynes was one of the few students chosen for the program from a national pool of more than 350 high school sophomore and junior applicants. He earned a full-scholarship to attend SES. The program motivates high school students from across the country to explore science and engineering majors in college. Project Greer Street, an educational enrichment program for African-American males, was launched by Yvette Sally and Ronald Sally.
