Formerly known as the School of Aviation Trades (SAT), Aviation High School has operated since 1936. It is ranked by US News and World Report as a 2013 Best High School in the Bronze Category. It is located in Long Island City, which is a neighborhood in the New York City borough of Queens undergoing widespread redevelopment. The school accepts students selectively. Eileen B. Taylor, principal of Aviation High School since 1991, retired in 2009. The new principal, Deno Charalambous, was formerly the assistant principal of administration and an assistant principal of aircraft maintenance. Mr. Charalambous is also a graduate of the high school, graduating as the class of 1976. As of the 2013–14 school year, the school has an enrollment of 2,244 students.

Students who successfully complete the school's rigorous technical programs are allowed to take their FAA certification examinations without further qualification. In order to achieve this, students at the school spend about three to four periods every day in "shop," technology related classes that concentrate on every aspect of an aircraft's structure, systems, and components, as well as more general aviation subjects such as aerodynamics and Federal Aviation Regulations. These specialized classes are taught by FAA-certificated AMTs, many of whom are themselves alumni of the school. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Aviation Career & Technical Education High School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
