Journal of Student Research – High School Edition (JSR)

Best for: Students who have a formal research project (AP Research, IB, honors research, or similar) and want to try a real journal-style submission process. Day to day: Students submit through an online system in multiple steps and must include a teacher or advisor with contact information in the contributor section. Common pitfalls: Manuscripts are not eligible without a high school affiliation and an advisor contact. The journal also has specific docx formatting and submission-template expectations, and there can be charges tied to author count or processing, so students should read the fee section before submitting.
