Jalen Constant and Caitlin Annan represented UHS at the Long Island Science and Engineering Fair. They presented their projects conducted over the past year to experts in their respective fields. We are so proud of them. #GoKnights @UniondaleUFSD

Students chose a scientist's work to explore and conducted a mini-experiment in class.  They then submitted a short video describing the result and the importance to the field of science. Uniondale HS had over 15 groups of students submit entries to the challenge.  Go Knights!

The Uniondale Intro to Research students just completed their submissions for the (IACS) at Stony Brook University challenge.   This competition highlights the work of Women in the STEM fields in celebration of International Day of Women and Girls in Science (February 11th).

A great day at NYU’s GSTEM Symposium. UHS’s Jaretzy Cruz-Reyes wrapped up her 6 weeks of research by presenting her engineering project: Natural Disasters and the Building Code. Inspiring to see the girls who will be the Women of Science! @MDarrisawAkil #GSTEM

This lack of training was found to dramatically increase levels of anxiety of workers.

One major implication of her findings is that if employers want to alleviate anxiety in the workplace, companies should start training workers on how to coexist with automation so that they can get used to having automation in the workforce.

By analyzing her data, I found out that there was a statistically significant relationship between job satisfaction and fear of becoming obsolete due to automation. Her hypothesis was in fact proven correct.

Her original hypothesis was that there will be a decrease in job satisfaction and people will be very afraid of becoming obsolete. She used a survey that was sent via Mechanical Turk to participants that are currently employed in a variety of fields.

One of our UHS Research scholars our students, Jaretzy Cruz-Reyes competed in Round 1 of LISEF. Her project’s purpose was to explore the relationship between job satisfaction in the American workforce and the fear of becoming obsolete due to technological advancements.

Kimberly Reyes Alvarado was also awarded a grant to support her project: “The Effects of NOx and Particulate Matter Pollution Produced by Vehicles on the Number of People with Respiratory Diseases Such as Asthma Within Neighborhoods.”

Esther Rene was awarded a grant to support her ongoing project: “How does Noise Pollution Impair Cognative Abilities in High School Students while Perfoming Academic Tasks such as Test Taking, Memorization and Decision Making?”

Two of our Research Scholars were awarded a Mini-Research Grant Award through the New York Institute of Technology and the American Association of University Women.

I am pleased to report that ALL of our AP research scholars scored a 3 or higher for their projects. There are two components of the AP Research assessment: 1. A 5000-6000 word academic paper 2. A 15-20 minute presentation and oral defense. I am so proud of them!

So proud of our UHS Research scholars who shared their work at last night’s Research Symposium. Great job by all!!!

8 of our scholars were awarded an honorable mention: Camila Decima Teruno Hyman Marjorie Martinez Gomez Marcos Navarrete Marlee Peters Eric Tejada Oscar Umanzor Carlos Urias Cunha So proud of these young men and women!

Two UHS students were recognized with the Meritorious award at the 2022 Senior Division of the Long Island Science Congress.  These students were among hundreds of students who submitted their research projects. Congrats to Aniyah Jackson and Adele Stiven! @MDarrisawAkil

Our AP Research students completed their Presentation and Oral Defense last week and uploaded their Academic Papers this week. Today, they are submitting their papers to online journals for peer review. #TheWorkGoesOn #NoLetUp #Ustrong

On March 24, the Uniondale Board of Education recognized Steve Parra and Oniz Flores for their honorable mention in the Exploravision competition. I am so proud of these two extraordinary young men! #Exploravision #uniondaleresearch
