Engineering Program Information Meeting for High School Juniors

By Staff Report | Education

HUDSON FALLS – The New Visions Engineering program will hold a parent-student information meeting at 6 p.m. Tuesday, March 4, in Room B4 at the Southern Adirondack Education Center in Hudson Falls for students who will be seniors next year.

If the Southern Adirondack Education Center is closed due to inclement weather, the snow date for the meeting is Wednesday, March 5.

The New Visions Engineering Program is an academically rigorous program for college-bound high school seniors interested in engineering, physics, math, architecture or other physical science fields. Students are introduced to engineering concepts through hands-on projects, industry visits and advanced college-level math and physics. Upon completion of the program, students have an intimate understanding of college level physics and calculus as well as the work environment for current professional engineers. 

The program is for high-achieving students in districts that may not offer advanced, college-prep courses in Advanced Placement (AP) Physics, AP Calculus and engineering.

Applications are available at the student’s home school guidance department or online at www.wswheboces.org. The deadline for applications to be submitted to the student’s school guidance counselor is April 4, 2014.
