Mechanical Dreams - The final exhibition for our seniors. Art and Physics converge as groups of 4 senior students take their dreams and turn them into automatons.

HTH 11th graders met with alums at UC Berkeley and the HTH Black Student Union took a photo in front of the Iconic Olympic monument at San Jose State. 
Thank you to HTH alums Garret Layton, Zoe Marsh, Annika Constantino, Rose and Sharon Wilson and Hannah Heinrichs who led our 11th grade students on a tour of UC Berkeley. Students also sat through an admissions information session. The Bay Area College Tour included stops at UCSB, Cal Poly SLO and San Jose State. 
Student-created magazine, researched, written, and designed by the full 10th grade team in the ECO Project at the Gary and Jerri Ann Jacobs High Tech High in Point Loma.

Would you like to open up your home to the world by hosting a foreign exchange student?  This year, several foreign exchange students from all over the world would like to come to San Diego. You can check out their bios here and see if one would be a good fit for your family. Hosting a student is a great opportunity to introduce your family to another culture and create a lifelong bond.  Students are fluent in English and come for one semester or a school year.  For more information, please email Margaret Egler at megler@hightechhigh.org
