NTHS

Tours

PLEASE NOTE: Tours have closed for the 2007-2008 School Year. Stay tuned to this web page for details about 2008-2009 tours, which will begin again in September.

In the past 11 years, we have hosted over 8,000 visitors to New Technology High School, including Tipper Gore, Melinda Gates and Bill Gates, Sr., and other VIPs. Due to the rate of visitation, we have established Tours New Tech (TNT), a student-led organization of volunteers that is responsible for leading tours of New Technology High School.

General tours are designed to provide community members or other interested individuals a glimpse into what New Technology High School is and what makes it so different from traditional high schools, while providing a valuable learning experience for our tour guides.

Students interested in attending NTHS and their parents are also invited to participate in these tours. It is strongly recommended that you make your reservation ahead to time to avoid disappointment upon arriving at NTHS without a reservation. Please call External Relations, located at the New Technology Foundation at (707) 259-5990 for more information.

Tours are available at Napa site only.
