Students experienced a day in the wild this May when they took a 25 mile bike trip in Jim Thorpe State Park in Pennsylvania. Mr. Hanson, Ms. Terry, Mr. Lucki and Mr. Montes led the intrepid explorers through beautiful trails and gorges. The trip was designed to show students that physical fitness is lifelong fun.

HSTAT's New Wing Opens
On January 30, 2008, the opening of the spring term, classes began their work in the new rooms of our long-awaited building addition. The new wing replaces classroom space in the trailers and the temporary rooms in the auditorium and balcony. There are 16 new rooms, each equipped with a TV, DVD player and computers. The rooms will be air-conditioned in summer and have been supplied with specially designed furniture to facilitate group work. Demolition will now begin on the auditorium and in ten months HSTAT will have a completely new 900 seat theatre space.
