GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Excellent school that pushes you out of your comfort zone to grow and learn differently than a traditional high school.

The teachers are friendly and always willing to help. The teachers also go above and beyond to make students feel comfortable in the learning environment.

There is so much to talk about, but in summary, the group of students at the school who put together every event were lead around by a very nice and orderly person. This group did a whole lot in my first few years, but soon after this individual left, things weren't as fun. Sure, there were little parties and things, but it wasn't the same. Still, many great projects and people come into and out of New Tech, each one hard working and doing their best. Would I do it all again? Of course. I would be friends with the same people, and do things how I did them. I was my own person, and I didn't listen to those who sought to shoot me down. New Tech is a friendly, welcoming place, and I don't think I would want to go anywhere else.

My son is a freshman at New Tech, and though he hasn't been there long, the school has already gone far above my hopes and expectations. Because he has some learning and social challenges, I worried a lot about how he would do in the big world of high school. Fortunately we found New Tech, which is...
