Norwich Technical High School

About

Norwich Technical High School is located in the southeastern part of Connecticut, and is one of seventeen state technical high schools.

Story

The Connecticut Technical High School Family Engagement Program is a partnership between families, schools, students and community, all with the important goal of increasing student achievement. Partnerships can improve school programs and school climate, provide support for families, increase parents’ skills and leadership, connect families with other families in the school and connect families with others in the community. With frequent interactions and communication between schools, families and communities, our students will hear the same message, from all the partners, of the importance of school, of hard work and of contributing to the community. Our system encourages families to partner with the school through the Family Engagement Action Team. Participation does not require a parent or family member to be a member of the Parent/ Faculty Organization. Facebook is another way we are connecting with our Norwich Tech families!
