Welcome to Mrs. Quinlan's digital portfolio where you can find all the important information about Physics, Engineering, Advisory classes and what's happening.

Why Physics? Physics is an exciting and changing field of science. This class will stretch your brain and help you engage your curiosity about the world and science around you. Everyone is a physicist, it is all about engineering the world around you into practical solutions and applications. Please email me at kquinlan@hightechhigh.org for any questions.
So you found out you have to take Physics. First you are wondering why you need Physics, the second thought is it's too hard. Both thoughts are wrong. If you are reading this post, Physics enabled the ability of the energy transformation from electrical energy to potential to electromagnetic energy for you to be reading the words on your screen. Next, have you considered how your electronic device turns on? Well, if you haven't you are now. Does your energy come from an Hydro-electric dam, a nuclear power plant, or maybe coal-fired power plant? All of these topics are Physics, not to mention the fact that by reading these words your brain is engaged in the electromagnetic spectrum with visible light waves converting energy with longitudinal waves, transforming into electrical pulses so your brain can understand what I'm talking about. Physics is real, it's everyday and all around you. Next time you get into a moving vehicle and put on sunglasses, just think, "Physics isn't too hard, it's just solving the world around me." I'll be seeing you in Physics class!

"The sea is dangerous and its storms terrible, but these obstacles have never been sufficient reason to remain ashore... Unlike the mediocre, intrepid spirits seek victory over those things that seem impossible... It is with an iron will that they will embark on the most daring of all endeavors... to meet the shadowy future without fear and conquer the unknown." -Ferdinand Magellan, Explorer (c. 1520)
