New Tech Network’s comprehensive approach to school-based innovation through project-based learning and work-based education has a proven track record in K-12 schools.
We Believe...
Successful students should leave school with the skills and abilities to thrive in the workforce – whether they enter the workforce immediately, choose to attend college, or work while continuing their education.
Higher academic and business community are demanding different skills from employees and college students. Businesses are no longer aligned with the way traditional school is taught.
The workforce is changing jobs at such a rapid rate that the future of jobs is uncertain. Many of the jobs that current students will have are not yet invented.

Data that Supports Our Work
Better Together
To prepare students for the future, they need to develop problem-solving and critical thinking skills, and learn
how to find and apply content knowledge, not just memorize it. To tackle this challenge educators cannot
work alone. New Tech Network is just that, a Network, where a group of diverse, driven educators
work together to pioneer learning for the future.
