The Institute of Technology @ Syracuse Central is a newly added high school (once a vocational school) in downtown Syracuse, New York. Tech Central was recently reopened during the 2007-2008 school year with 96 students in their freshman year.

Central Tech was founded as Syracuse Central High School. The historic building has been neglected and has been in a state of disrepair for some time. Currently, the project to renovate the building faces funding issues.[1]
Students currently attend classes at Levy Middle School while renovations are being done on the old school.
Since the main building is still under remodeling, students do not have a gym. Instead they have a small but spacey, shop room and walk to the nearby YMCA to use the gyms. Students are able to use the weights in the back of the room. Students also are able to use many physical game stations including the popular Dance Dance Revolution videogame. The room also serves as locker room for the football team.
ITC has a football team with members in their Freshman and Sophomore year. They have a basic full-length field to practice on. The Central Tech Eagles use the Corcoran High School's football fields for home games. For girls, there is a volleyball team. Central Tech will have two basketball teams (for boys and girls). There may also be a Lacrosse team this year.
