In marking Black History Month, Westhampton Beach High School math students have been studying famous African American mathematicians.  As part of the project, the students watched the film “Hidden Figures,” and then each selected a mathematician to research. 

“Students are learning about the great accomplishments of these men and women and what they have achieved in the fields of mathematics and science,” said math teacher Kristen Regan.

Once their projects are complete, the students will present them using Buncee, a multimedia app from a Long Island-based company.
