The Lynde and Harry Bradley Technology and Trade School is a high school in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Founded in 1906 as Boys Technology and Trade School, its name was changed to Milwaukee Trade and Technical High School in 1976, after women were admitted. The school's name was changed to its present one in 2002 following a donation by Jane Pettit, widow of Lloyd Pettit. Tech specializes in construction, communications, manufacturing, and design.
Renovations to the school were completed on November 11, 2002. The former Boys Tech building was removed in 2006 using Milwaukee City and MPS funds. The area is being converted to an athletic field and park, with funding from a grant from the NFL and a local donation. The class of 2006 was the first to complete all four years in the new building.
The school has paired with Rufus King High School, another high school in the city, to produce a FIRST robotics team, Team 1675, which participated in many events over the last two years.
Athletics
Tech's mascot is Tuffy the Trojan. The school colors are purple, silver and white. Tech's long time rivals are the Bay View High School Red Cats.
The boys' swim team dominated the Milwaukee City Conference, winning 24 times in 25 years ending with the 1989 school year. The boys' baseball program won the state championship in 1985, and the boys' basketball program has produced two state championships, in 1979 and 1983.
Girls' volleyball place third in the city in the 2005-2006 season, after Bay View and Riverside.
In 1986 Tech became the only City Conference school to play for the WIAA Division 1 football championship, losing the title game to two-time defending champion Manitowoc 28-20.
