Secondary Programs Career Academy News Christie Finley Director of Secondary Instruction November 6, 2014
Student Participation and Achievement in Cyber Security Continues to Grow • Fielded five Cyber Patriot teams at two high schools • All HCS teams finished in first or second place in Alabama • A Cyber Patriot team from Grissom finished second in the nation During School Year 2013-14 Huntsville City Schools: Students from Grissom PlacedSecond in the Nation in theCyber Patriot Competition Sponsored by the U.S. Air Force
Student Participation and Achievement in Cyber Security Continues to Grow • Fielded 27 Cyber Patriot teams • All HCS High Schools and Two Middle Schools Now Have Teams • HCS Now Has Two All Women’s Teams During School Year 2014-15 Huntsville City Schools: HCS Teams Ended First Round Competition with Strong Results: • HCS Teams Took 15 of the Top 22 Spots in Alabama • HCS Teams Earned the Top Four Scores in the Alabama Open Division • HCS Earned the Top Score in the Alabama All Service Division • Our Students are Competing Against 1,400+ Teams from Across America
HCS Advanced Manufacturing Academy Students Are Designing Flight Hardware for NASA As a First, HCS Students are Designing and Fabricating Flight Hardware for Space Station.Our Students Will Design and Print Flight Bracket-Clamp Parts Within Our Advanced Manufacturing Academy. Students Will Use Siemens Solid Edge Software in the Design Phase and 0ur Fortus 3D Printer with Special ULTEM FDM (Plastic) During the Manufacturing Phase to Fabricate a Bracket-Clamp for the Space Station. This Bracket-Clamp will Use High Temp Material that Meets the Flammability and 120lbs. Kick Load Test Requirements for the Space Station.
Advanced Manufacturing HCS students will also design space suit hard body parts using Computer Aided Design tools in the CAD-Drafting segment of our Advanced Manufacturing Academy. The suit will be used for ergonomics and human factors studies as NASA develops the Deep Space Habitat Suit.
Advanced Manufacturing • In future projects, HCS students will design and fabricate parts for the SPACE Station and Deep Space Habitat in the HCS Advanced Manufacturing Composites Layup Facility. • Our students will re-design the existing aluminum Galley table clamp assembly for fabrication in composite materials to reduce weight. Our students will design a reverse mold for the composite layup using Siemens Solid Edge tools and fabricate the clamp using one of our 3D printers.
