Raising the Bar
Founded in 2003, the Delaware Military Academy is the only public charter high school in the United States based on the traditions, values, and ideals of the U.S. Navy. Although academics are the backbone of any educational organization, leadership is the muscle of DMA. Cadets enrolled are active members of the Naval Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps program and learn through a structured, traditional military school environment including self-discipline, motivation, and activities that enable our students to become productive citizens in a vastly changing technological society.
Due to continuing hazardous road conditions on many neighborhood streets and secondary roadways, bus stop safety concerns and transportation issues, DMA will have a virtual school day Thursday 1/29 AND Friday 1/30. Tomorrow will be an A day for cadets and Friday will be a B day. Please adhere to the virtual learning guidelines found here:
In the event of a weather-related cancellation, teachers will be required to load asynchronous lessons to Schoology in accordance with the virtual school day policy:
The following guidelines should be considered when planning for a virtual day.
1. Every teacher is expected to provide work for the virtual day NO LATER than 0800 in the morning on a virtual day
2. The required work MUST include a warmup activity that will be required to be considered “in attendance” that day. This must be identifiable by cadet name and be date and time stamped.
3. A minimum of 60 minutes of work should be assigned and it should be aligned to the standards and relevant to where you are in your current unit.
Please make sure that all cadets follow the instructions above as this counts as a day of school.
A special shout out to our amazing facilities team who did an exceptional job clearing the DMA campus! All your hard work is greatly appreciated!
Thank you to our DMA families for your flexibility and understanding as we deal with the fallout from the winter storm.
Looking forward to seeing everyone back on campus Monday and let’s make sure we get those virtual assignments completed!
