Gift of Giving 2022

The Gift of Giving Toy Drive is a longstanding tradition in the HSTAT Community.  Students collect toys, wrap them, organize them, and distribute them to needy Brooklyn youngsters in local elementary schools, and children's hospitals.  Students from various student clubs and groups participate each year, and do a wonderful job hosting our young  guests at the event held at the Dyker Heights Golf Course and Catering Hall.  Over 150 guests are treated to lunch, a toy, and a visit with Santa; with HSTAT students working to make the event a success each year.

Physics Trip to Intrepid

Physics students enjoyed a field trip to the Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum. Students explored the former aircraft carrier USS Intrepid. While on board, they had the opportunity to tour the Flight Deck and learn about different military aircraft. They also toured the Hangar Deck where they learned about the Intrepid's role in World War 2 and took advantage of the numerous interactive exhibits aboard the ship. In addition, the students were able to learn about the many navigational instruments needed to operate such a large vessel. The students also had the opportunity to walk through the decommissioned Navy submarine USS Growler. Here they learned about the conditions sailors experienced while living beneath the ocean's surface for months at a time aboard a nuclear armed submarine. In addition, the students learned about NASA's space shuttle program while visiting the Space Shuttle Pavilion which is now home to the retired space shuttle Enterprise.
