Welcome to the Cheney Technical High School web site. I hope that your visit to our homepage will encourage you to pursue a further inquiry into our school.

Cheney Tech enrolls students from a diverse twenty-six-town region that includes the urban areas of East Hartford, Hartford, and Bloomfield to the suburban and rural towns of Manchester, Enfield, Glastonbury, Vernon, Ellington, and Coventry.

Our student population of 610 students can select a major program of study from a catalog of ten different technologies. Highlights of our technology curriculum are the Diesel and Welding Technology shops, the only such programs on the secondary level in the State of Connecticut. Students enrolled in the construction trades (Carpentry, Electrical, and HVAC) are involved in authentic work experiences in the shop as well as on out of school construction sites. The Automotive trades (Auto Mechanics, Diesel Technology) are actual production garages where students work on customer vehicles. Many students from the Information Systems Technology and Computer Aided Drafting and Design programs continue their education in college. The newest addition to our trade program is Culinary Arts. Students graduating from the Manufacturing Technology and Welding programs are in high demand by area businesses.

A feature of student life at Cheney Tech is our biweekly Club Day program during which all students participate in advisor led club activities ranging from hiking, archery, music, and movie club. Our athletic teams have won several Conference titles in the last five years. Our outdoor Athletic Complex is a state of the art synthetic turf field (Baseball, Softball, Football and Soccer) with lights and grandstand seating for 650.00

I invite you to contact Cheney Tech to arrange a visit. We hope you decide to stay with us.

Sincerely,

Bruce Sievers

Principal
