Our Vision

The Rindge School of Technical Arts aims to provide the best technical education for high school students in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

In a high-tech environment we will deliver curriculum that connects knowledge development with its application in the workplace.


Our Mission

To meet our vision, the RSTA staff provides for students the highest quality instructional resources and tools in an environment that is safe, healthy, and fully modernized. We promote and encourage a climate of high expectations and a respect for education.

Our challenging curriculum provides all students with learning opportunities, and the chance to continually improve and master skills that are taught by experienced teachers. We provide an education that is relevant, modern and rigorous for all levels of students.

Our advisory boards and outreach programs assure that the local community and our students' families are welcomed to our program, and we count on their partnership to support and strengthen all that we do.
