The School of Science and Technology (SST) is an accredited, public high school located in Beaverton, Oregon, United States. It is a magnet program for students who have an interest in mathematics, life and physical sciences, and technology. It is part of the Beaverton School District (BSD). It was established in 1993, as the School of Natural Resources Science and Technology, and later renamed. SST moved at the end of 2015 to expanded and remodeled facilities at a site it shares with BSD's Health and Science School.
For 2015, US News & World Report ranked SST second among public high schools in the Beaverton School District (first among schools offering AP programs), fourth in the state of Oregon, and 598th nationally.The Oregonian ranked SST first in its 2015 school performance ratings within the Beaverton School District.
History
SST began as a Certificate of Initial Mastery program called the School of Natural Resources Science and Technology, or NRST, in 1993, and was one of the magnet programs at the then-new Merlo Station High School, located on S.W. Merlo Drive just west of the then-planned Merlo Road/SW 158thMAX Light Rail station (which opened in 1998). The school occupied an old warehouse, which was renovated a few months before the program's opening. The name was eventually shortened to School of Science and Technology (SST).
The Medway School of Science is one of the schools of the University of Greenwich in South East England. The School of Science is based on the university's Medway campus in Chatham Maritime in the county of Kent. The School of Science has activity in both research and teaching and covers topics such as chemistry, pharmaceutical sciences, earth and environmental sciences, biosciences and sports science.
History
The School of Science has inherited the history of the University of Greenwich, which has been involved in the teaching of science for over 100 years and dates back to 1890 when Woolwich Polytechnic was founded. Indeed, prior to moving to the Medway campus in 2002, the School of Science occupied the old Thames Polytechnic buildings in Woolwich.
Organisation
The School of Science consists of two academic departments and a consultancy department:
Pharmaceutical, Chemical and Environmental Sciences
Life and Sports Sciences
Medway Sciences
Teaching
The School of Science teaches a wide range of subjects at both undergraduate and postgraduate level. Subjects include:
The School of Science is the nickname given to the complex by some supporters, referring to a long-standing nickname for the club. The training ground houses both the Everton first team and the youth academy. The first team squad officially moved to the complex on 9 October 2007, some time behind the target date of pre-season. Plans were drawn up for the Cheshire County Council owned site in 2002.
Everton originally tried to find land in Liverpool but eventually settled on the 55-acre (220,000m2) site, off Higher Road and Finch Lane in Halewood. Some Halewood residents fought the plans as the training complex and academy was built on greenbelt land.
Finch Farm was acquired in 2006 by Everton who later sold the land on for £2.1 million and then had it developed to the club’s specification by developers ROM Capital (an arm of the aAim Group) who as of March 2010 are known as Hudson Capital Properties.
Science and technology, while often closely related, are two distinct subjects:
Science, a systematic enterprise that builds and organizes knowledge in the form of testable explanations and predictions about nature and the universe.
Technology, the collection of techniques, methods or processes used in the production of goods or services or in the accomplishment of objectives, such as scientific investigation.
