About NewTech@Mann
NewTech@Mann is a “school within a school” on the campus of J. L. Mann High School that offers students project-based learning, student-led culture, and one-on-one technology.
Many core content areas are taught as combined classes at NewTech@Mann in order to support cross-disciplinary learning. For example, in the freshman year a student can expect to take English 1 with World Geography or English 2 with World History. In addition to the core content areas of English, mathematics, science and social studies, NewTech@Mann offers support courses which provide training for the technological skills students will need both for their projects and their future.
