Our students participate in community service projects, represent our school around the country and meet local and national leaders who teach students how to advocate for change.
Imagine a school where your child is encouraged to stand up and speak out for justice, peace and diversity. Facing History New Tech High School is the only school of its kind in the nation, using the Facing History and Ourselves curriculum along with the teamwork approach of the New Tech Network.
