Access Excellence is a national educational program sponsored by biotechnology industry pioneer, Genetech, Inc. It provides a forum for the development, discussion, and exchange of information for biology and the life-sciences.

Although it sounds like a service exclusively for high school teachers, on closer inspection there's lots here for students, too. For instance, there are regular reports on developments in biology taken from a variety of sources including journals, conferences, and the Internet and a collection of unusual facts and statistics with which you can dazzle your friends and family.

You'll definitely earn "brownie points" if you pass along to your science or biology teachers the URL for this site. They will find new ideas and activities, lessons and discussions about innovative approaches to science education, online seminars, a message board, and links to related sites.  Check it out.
