Welcome/Greeting
Welcome students of the HRHS Technology and Engineering Education program. I will be your Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) teacher this year. I have 19 years experience teaching Engineering, STEM, and Math in Pennsylvania, both K-12 and Post-Secondary. I look forward to collaborating with every student this year. We are in our second year officially of having our Technology Student Association (TSA) chapter and invite every HRHS student to be a part of the club. TSA encompasses a multitude of competitions from CAD, Architecture, Engineering Design, Fashion Design, Graphic Design, Photography, and Robotics. Feel free to contact me via email at any time during the school year.
