Small state. Big impact.

Coming from out of state, something that has always struck me about Delaware is the “small town” feel it has and the way communities band together. To teach in Delaware is to believe that we as educators are making a difference daily for the lives of kids in our community – not just academically, but their socio-emotional needs as well. 

The thing I love the most about teaching in Delaware is the ability to inspire. Once we are able to help a kid light their fire the places they can go are limitless! They are our future, and it is my pleasure to help aid them along the way. Some believe this job doesn’t pay much but the reward of a smile or a you were there when I needed you is just priceless!

Delaware may be a small state, but there is nothing small about the love, passion, and commitment to our students. I love impacting our children, making connections, and truly being a positive influence. We chose our profession to make a difference in the lives of our future and as educators, Delaware allows us to bring out the best in all of them.

Teaching in Delaware provides educators the opportunity to thrive in a system that believes in their value and supports the work they do with students.

One thing I love about teaching in Delaware is being a part of all the awesome initiatives that my district offers.
