Don Bosco Technical Institute
(commonly called "Bosco Tech" or "The Tech") is an all-male high school in Rosemead, California, combining college-preparatory academic courses and technological education. The academic curriculum allows students to meet or go beyond the admission requirements of the Universities of California, the California State Universities and most other four-year colleges and universities throughout the country.
Bosco Tech offers a wide variety of extracurricular activities as well as sports. The school is based on Catholic values. Students of any faith or religious persuasion may attend.
The school is located in the San Gabriel Valley, 10 miles (16 km) east of downtown Los Angeles, just north of the Pomona Freeway (SR 60) in the city of Rosemead, California. It occupies approximately thirty acres.
Don Bosco Technical Institute (Bosco Tech) was established as a high school in 1954 through the cooperative efforts of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Los Angeles, the Salesian Society, as well as industrial and business leaders of the Greater Los Angeles Area.
Today, Bosco Tech is the only all-male Catholic high school in the state that uniquely integrates a college preparatory curriculum with a comprehensive, four-year, project based science and technology program. The goal of the school is to produce students who are prepared and motivated to pursue advanced study and, ultimately, careers in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM). The Bosco Tech Board of Trustees recently articulated its expectations that the school embrace and promote the highest academic standards, achieve Blue Ribbon status and, more importantly, receive recognition as one of the country’s leading high schools for STEM education. This is a natural evolution of the original mission of the school however, it has been appropriately realigned with the needs of 21st century America.
