DANVILLE -- The high school science department is getting an upgrade. It's called the Einstein project.

Through donors and grants, the school was able to buy 13 computers with probes. They include applications allowing students to do complex experiments using real science equipment.

Teachers hope the technology will get students interested in science careers. The equipment is used in every science class. It's the same equipment used in UI science labs.
