Delcastle Technical High School Home

Today is a great day to be a Cougar. I would like to welcome you to Delcastle Technical High School. I am the principal of an outstanding staff and fabulous students who work extremely hard each and every day to make Delcastle Technical High School a great place to learn. For over fifty years we have been building the state and global Workforce. Over 80% of our graduates each year continued their learning by attending some form of post-secondary education with more than a third of their education related to their chosen career at Delcastle.
 
With twenty-three career area programs, Delcastle provides the largest number of career area offerings in the state. Each career area competes in Career and Technical Student Organizations (CTSO) such as Business Professionals of America (BPA), Health Occupations Students of America (HOSA) and Skills USA. Each year our students win at the state and national levels. In addition to obtaining awards at the national level in CTSO competitions, our students and staff efforts have led to multiple awards and recognition which include, but not limited to:
Superstars in Education Award
Excellence in Leadership Award
U.S. News and World Report Bronze Medal School
First school in Delaware to speak with the International Space Station   
 
Each day our goal is to create an environment that honors, inspires, and celebrates every unique individual member of the Delcastle community and the multifaceted experiences they bring to school each day. This will be achieved through a focus on Cultural Competency, Culturally Responsive Instruction, and the Empowering of Student Voice. Our efforts embrace inclusion and our diversity will lead to social/emotional and academic/career excellence. Thus, equipping students with the skills they need to achieve their post-secondary aspirations.
 
I can talk all day about our school but seeing is believing. I invite you to peruse our website to learn more about what we have to offer and gather additional information about our upcoming events.
