We are excited to announce that Ms. Lindsay Hoeschel has been selected and approved by the School Board to serve as Assistant Principal at Howard HS of Technology.

Ms. Hoeschel has taught multiple levels of English at Howard since 2012, and last year she completed NCCVT's Administrative Intern program, during which she gained valuable experience in school administration, including IEP meetings, new staff orientation, master schedule development, and more. A former NCCVT Teacher of the Year, she also has served as Howard's English Department Chair since 2016, Induction Coach/New Teacher Mentor since 2015, MTSS Academic Team Lead since 2022, and is a member of the school's Professional Learning Team and Teacher of the Year committee. Ms. Hoeschel is a graduate of the University of Delaware (Bachelor in English Education) and Wilmington University (Masters of Education), and will soon earn a graduate certificate in Trauma and Resilience.

Congratulations, Ms. Hoeschel!

We are so grateful to US Representative Sarah McBride for the generous funding she secured for our Adult Education Division & Delaware Skills Center! On Tuesday she visited DSC to highlight the $1 million in Community Project Funding she secured. The funds will help further NCCVT's goal to consolidate Adult Education & Skills Center programming into one facility, expanding training capacity, improving efficiency, reducing long-term operating costs, and strengthening Delaware's workforce pipeline. The project will help to eliminate ongoing rental expenses while creating opportunities for future growth and will help ensure adult students continue to have access to the hands-on training, clinical experiences, and workforce development resources they need to succeed.

NCCVT's Adult Education programs, including the Delaware Skills Center, have continued to grow to meet demand. This school year, our adult programs served more than 2,100 students with a 96% completion rate. These programs include rapid workforce training, apprenticeships, GED preparation, and English for non-native speakers.

NCCVT student-athletes! If you need a sports physical, you can get one Monday at the Hudson State Service Center in Newark. Bring your DIAA physical forms with you.
