Computer languages. Bugs. Robots. Cells. Bunsen burners and chemicals.

On the first day of school, Naomi Baptiste of North Miami Beach Senior High School stepped into her precalculus classroom … and was faced with a room full of computers. She soon learned that she would be learning math from a machine. In fact, the only adult figure in sight was a “facilitator” whose main role was to keep the computer programs running.

If you’re ever in need of a new computer, ask senior Arthur Chang to build you one, from scratch.
Chang became interested in building computers in 2005, when he got his first computer to mess around with, an AMD 3700+.

iPhones, netbooks and hybrid cars are just some of technological innovations that have come about in the past decade. Technological advances that have become so commonplace in the past 10 years could not have even been conceived of in the '90s. The school has also experienced changes in these past years and many teachers who have been teaching here since the '90s can recall a simpler time when the school only owned three computers total.
