New Tech High at Zion-Benton East, or New Tech, is a public four-year high school located at the intersection of Bethesda Drive and 23rd Street in Zion, Illinois, a town located in the northeastern corner of Illinois and a suburb of Chicago. It is the second school of Zion-Benton Township High School District 126 and partners with Zion-Benton Township High School. The school logo is the school's initials and the "at" symbol, which is designed to embrace the innovated nature of the school's "break with tradition" of the typical high school. The school mascot is shared with ZBTHS and is the Fighting Zee-Bee, which was derived from a combination of the first two initials of the township (Zion-Benton) and an adaptation of the Navy SeaBees of WWII, which the township had close ties to. The school opened at the former ZBTHS Pierce campus in 2008 and is associated with the New Tech Network of Napa, California. New Tech teaches in the project-based learning style rather than the direct instructional model as taught in most high schools in the United States.
