Superintendent of Schools:
Mr. Jason D. Thomson
Philosophy:
My philosophy on education is that all children can learn. My goal as the Superintendent at Delaware Academy Central School District at Delhi is to provide a safe and nurturing environment for these mindful, active learners. Delaware Academy students will develop their character, intelligence and integrity as they prepare for their future. This begins with me. I will value and appreciate all our students and teachers for what they bring to the classrooms, school and community. This positive atmosphere will allow all of us to tap into our highest potential.
