Welcome to the school year 2019-20!
In my web pages you can find useful links for each of my classes as well as the curriculum map, class requirements, etc. 

You will also find class and club news such as science competitions.

Calendar of assignments and notes are available to students through my Google Classroom pages.

I teach AP Physics C (Calculus based) Mechanics and Electricity & Magnetism, Physics Honors(Algebra and Trigonometry based) and Methods of Science Research Honors I, II and III.

I also advise the Physics Club and the Astronomy Club.

  I have a Bachelor’s and a Master’s of Engineering degree from Stevens Institute of Technology, where I majored in Chemical Engineering with a Polymer Processing concentration.

I completed my teaching certification at St. Peter’s College. 

The best way to contact me is by email at hcoyle@tenafly.k12.nj.us .

The summer assignment is located in Google Classroom; please email me if you have trouble logging in.

A quote from Nobel Laureate Physicist Dr. Richard Feynman:

"I can appreciate the beauty of a flower. But at the same time, I see much more in the flower... I can imagine the cells inside, which also have a beauty. There's beauty not just at the dimension of one centimeter; there's also beauty at a smaller dimension. There are the complicated actions of the cells, and other processes. The fact that the colors in the flower have evolved in order to attract insects to pollinate it is interesting; that means that insects can see colors. That adds a question: does this aesthetic sense we have also exist in lower forms of life? There are all kinds of interesting questions that come from a knowledge of science, which only adds to the excitement and mystery and awe of a flower. It only adds."
