SAT and PSAT
We are writing this message to share with you the procedures of this year’s SAT and PSAT. All sophomores will take the PSAT. All juniors will take the SAT. Students do not need to register for the SAT they will take at Aviation. Starting 2024, all SATs and PSATs must be administered on a computer. The College Board will not allow any organization to administer a paper exam, worldwide. This transition to a purely digital format allows for certain flexibilities, while also creating new challenges.
1. Students will take their exam periods 1-4 or periods 6-9
a. Their exam time will not conflict with their shop class.
b. Students will take their exam during academic class periods and have lunch period 5 if their exam conflicts with lunch
2. Fifty students will be scheduled for each administration of each exam
a. Students will be assigned a specific exam day and time and be informed in school
b. The SAT will be administered from March 5th through March 15th, and the PSAT will be administered between March 18th through March 28th
c. Students with Disabilities will be allotted extended time and smaller grouping
***They will take the tests on separate days, towards the end of the testing windows.
If you have any questions, please reach out to your child’s counselor.

Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month
Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month
May is Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. This month serves as a time to celebrate the culture, history, and achievements of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders (AAPI) in New York City and across the country.
The recognition of AAPI Heritage on a federal level began in 1978, when President Jimmy Carter signed a resolution into law that had been introduced by Representative Frank Horton of Rochester, New York which established Asian/Pacific American Heritage Week to take place in early May. The dates were chosen to commemorate the arrival of the first Japanese immigrant to the United States on May 7, 1843, and to mark the anniversary of the completion of the transcontinental railroad on May 10, 1869, in recognition of the Chinese immigrants who made up a majority of laborers completing the work on the project.

Deep Inside New York's JFK Airport, There's A High School
"New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport is among the busiest in the country: More than 1,000 flights touch down and take off each day. More than 50 million passengers hurry through its gates each year.
But something else is happening too.
Not far from the waxed floors of the terminals and the automated voice proclaiming the end of the moving walkway, there's a school. And a classroom that has six wheels, two wings, and a tail. It is a Boeing 727, parked on the tarmac near the hangars and warehouses..."
