New Tech High @ Coppell (NTH@C) is a secondary high school located in Coppell, Texas, United States, a suburb of Dallas. It is the second high school in the Coppell Independent School District. It is part of the New Tech Network which nationwide has 86 "New Tech" schools. The school had its first senior class in 2011 and has a current enrollment of 382 students with 33 staff members. The school is also toured often by school districts and politicians interested in New Tech. It also has the shortest elapsed time in between when it starts and ends.
As of 2024, the high school is under a referendum from the Coppell Independent School District. They state that if New Tech High does not get enrollment numbers up within the next three years, the school with be forcibly shut down. This will place more population pressure on the district’s already-full main Coppell High School, and newer Ninth Grade Center.
