J N Petit Technical High School, one of the oldest and heritage Schools, was founded by Late Nusserwanjee Maneckjee Petit in 1888, in Lalbaug, Mumbai, in the loving memory of his son, Late Jamshedjee Nusserwanjee Petit, who died that year at the young age of 32.
It was set up with the sole intention of uplifting poor / orphan Zoroastrian boys by imparting quality education and looking after their total welfare.
It was shifted to the plush Bund Garden locality in Pune in the year 1948 and the first Director was Mr. Adam A Mackey.
