Don Bosco Tech Logo

The school's current letterhead contains an artistic blend of the letters D and B-the initials of Don Bosco, the name by which St. John Bosco is commonly known. Not only do the letters remind us of our school's patron saint, but the design itself indicates balance-which is what we strive for in our educational mission: a balance between academic and technological studies; a balance between self and others; and a balance between activity and rest.
The educational environment that we have created supports the growth of all-parents, students, faculty and staff-by fostering this balanced school environment. Salesian educators offer their students the time, opportunity, and guidance to know themselves better, to understand the purpose for their lives, and to be prepared to take their places within their families, their church, and our society. |

Today we hail thee,
