Box Hill Technical School opened on Dunloe Avenue, Mont Albert North, in 1943. Enrolments had reached 636 by 1967. It became a co-educational college in 1985 upon merging with Whitehorse Girls Technical School (which closed). In 1993 it was rebadged as Box Hill Senior Secondary College, only catering for Years 10 to 12. This forced students in Years 7 to 9 to move to other schools, with Koonung Secondary College featuring prominently. Therefore, Box Hill Technical can be considered closed.

Although Box Hill Senior Secondary College claims to cater for Years 7 to 9 students, that only applies to elite athletes. The Middle Years Sports Campus is located within the grounds, catering for the young athletes in sports such as AFL, tennis and basketball.
