Sports

The Football Team, the Technical Tigers, is currently ranked #7 in the State Poll.

Technical High School Sports has been privileged to have their very own Superfan (name unknown) who attends the majority of their sporting events. Very little is known about the Tech Superfan, but he is a dedicated bugger, I'll tell ya that much.

Jail/Bathroom

One of the more popular criticisms of Technical Senior High School is that its interior "looks like a combination bathroom and jail cell, what with these tiles on the walls and jail bars around the stairwells," remarked by R&B musician Mark Morrison during his visit to the school in December, 1997.
