Welcome to Greater Lowell Technical High School! |
|||||||||||||||||
Greater Lowell Technical High School commits to ensure students’ readiness for career, college, and citizenship in the 21st century. We challenge and support students as they realize their individual potential for personal and professional success. The Greater Lowell Regional Vocational Technical School District is comprised of the city of Lowell and the towns of Dracut, Dunstable, and Tyngsborough, communities with a combined population of about 150,000 residents and a FY21 budget of $49.3M. The school first opened in 1974 and recently completed a $65M construction/renovation project. In addition to a grade 9-12 enrollment of approximately 2,200 students, the school also offers Practical Nursing and Adult Education Programs. We believe in educating students in a supportive and safe environment and providing distinct technical and academic experiences in order to assist all students in realizing a genuine focus for the future. The school is ranked in the 46th percentile of all high schools in MA which represents a 30 point increase over the last 4 years. As a modern vocational technical high school we are able to offer students two educations in one. We offer challenging and rigorous academic courses in the four core subjects of English, math, science, and history. In addition, rather than supplementing our academics with an array of elective courses, our students explore, select, and focus on one of our 23 vocational technical program majors. As a result, Greater Lowell Tech students are prepared to either enter college or the workforce upon graduation. OUR CORE VALUES: Greater Lowell Technical High School has established a set of core values to guide the actions of all students and staff, and that are reflected daily in their performance building quality lives, and a positive school culture conducive to learning for all. All members of the Greater Lowell Technical High School Learning Community will strive to: R.E.A.C.H. RESPECT - We treat ourselves, others and our surroundings with dignity through words and actions. EFFORT - We work to the best of our abilities to make continuous progress without giving up or giving in. ACCOUNTABILITY - We own our words and actions and have the courage to accept responsibility for our decisions. COMMITMENT - We show dedication to our success, our school and our community. HONESTY - We act with integrity and value the importance of truthfulness. If you share our values, we welcome your application. Greater Lowell Technical High School actively seeks to increase the diversity of its workforce. |
