New Tech is a really good school. Its faculty are exceptional and the resources available to students is fabulous. I really enjoyed the effort the teachers at the school put in to getting to know their students and providing a strong learning environment. The focus on project based learning is a definite benefit and the ability of teachers to relate those project to the overall subject and makes that understandable is my favorite aspect of the learning.

Disappointing, sad to have wasted my high school years here, this school was and is marketed as an innovative, new type of program. It's just siphoning funding from the other schools, without making up for it in quality. This isn't on the shoulders of the current school admins, as the whole office staff has been changed in recent years. just an example of why businesses and capital owners should stay out of education, unless they will just fund it for everyone.

It's a really nice school, small campus, smaller community. Classes aren't too big and allows you to interact with others.

I've had a great time at New Tech, Our new principal listens to students' concerns, and most teachers work hard to do the same. I feel very prepared for real world business situations.
