Principal's Message

Good Evening, HSTAT Families,

It has been an energizing week in our school community. HSTAT’s Black Student Union hosted a series of events, including a bake sale, a panel discussion, a gallery walk, and a paint‑and‑sip, all leading up to their movie night. Students in the Nest program also enjoyed a trip to the Staten Island Mall, and several of our students participated in the QoL Innovation Summit, representing our school with pride.

Looking ahead to next week, we will hold our SLT and PTA meetings on March 16. Parent‑Teacher Conferences will take place on March 18 from 5:00–8:00 p.m. and again on March 19 from 12:30–2:30 p.m. Please also note that there will be no student attendance on March 20 in observance of Eid al‑Fitr.

Everyone here at HSTAT wishes you a wonderful weekend.

Sincerely,

Xhenete Shepard

Principal
