The American Dream Through The Eyes Of One High School:

BecTech Center For Adaptive Innovation & Creativity

Immediate Benefits & Long-Term Focus

The new campus addition will be one of the most advanced projects Becton Regional High School had undertaken since it was built in 1971. It will feature dozens of modern classrooms and unique programs that will transform the traditional classroom and high school spaces into adaptive future ready facilities. In addition to bringing our students back home, the BecTech Center will allow students to gain experience in a variety of modern day careers and provide seamless interdisciplinary collaboration between a variety of different fields.

Additional features will include motion-activated restroom fixtures, bipolar ionization units that sanitize outside and inside air as it flows through the duct work, motion activated bottle fillers and digital hand sanitizing stations.

Solidifies Institutional Leadership

Becton Regional High School is experiencing great momentum in an era that began with a Port-Authority funded $37 million renovation in 2013 whose benefits included adding wellness and cultural assets and reviving athletics. Recent accolades for the system and the achievements of its students are signals that new investment in education is rewarding throughout the community.
The added value from an expansion of our already esteemed facility includes vastly enhanced performance and efficiency by everyone who touches it. From building utilization and energy use to staff recruitment and retention, layer upon layer of benefits will be delivered to the community from the Becton Regional expansion.

Honoring Our Veterans

Construction of a Veterans Plaza & Hall of Honor ensuring their sacrifice to our nation is always remembered
