Principal's Message
Welcome you to Brooklyn Technical High School. As Principal of this august institution, it is my honor and privilege to serve in one of the most respected and distinguished secondary schools in the world. In 1922, the vision and dreams of founding Principal Dr. Albert Colston became a reality and Brooklyn Technical High School opened to the boys of New York City. Since inception, Brooklyn Tech provided a significant part of the solution to the national shortage of trained problem solvers, aspiring engineers, and applied scientists. Now 85 years later, we continue to fulfill our mission and sustain the legacy of excellence created by Tech students through the decades.
Demonstrative evidence of the life transforming learning experiences provided at Tech are well documented by the remarkable achievements of our esteemed alumni. Technites are in the vanguard of every industry. Among our graduates are Nobel Prize laureates, astronauts, corporate executives, officials, numerous distinguished scientists, engineers, and architects, as well as noted leaders in business, finance, industry, publishing and the arts.
Louis Pasteur once said, “Chance favors the prepared mind.” There is no better place to prepare than Brooklyn Technical High School.
I hope that you will explore our newly revised website to learn more about the exciting things that Brooklyn Tech has to offer. While we are proud of this site, the only true way to fully experience, comprehend, and appreciate the unparalleled opportunities available at Tech is to visit the school.
