A Message from the Superintendent

Dear DA families and friends–   Happy New Year! It’s great to welcome back students, teachers and staff after a  much-deserved break. It may be winter, but there’s a lot going on here at the school,  with plenty to keep us all busy. Spring will be here before you know it!   We’re pleased to welcome Sara Werlau to Delaware Academy as our Business Manager. She started here December 23, and comes to us from Eldred Central School in Sullivan County. She is quickly acclimating to the position, and we’re glad to have her on board.   The district has begun building the 2025-2026 budget, with public budget sessions beginning in February (they’re listed on the district website and printed calendar).  The first budget workshop is scheduled to take place at 6:00 pm February 24, prior to  the regular Board of Education meeting, and the public is welcome to attend.   We’ll be holding our annual Job and College Fair for students in both Middle and High School on Thursday, January 30 (snow date Friday January 31).  A number of businesses and organizations will be presenting and meeting with students to help them learn about opportunities in our area. This event is organized in partnership with the DCMO BOCES Career Destinations program that we participate in.   As noted on the school calendar, the district will be closed on Monday, January 20 in observance of Martin Luther King Day. There will also be no school on Wednesday, January 29 in observance of Lunar New Year, but district offices will be open.  Coming soon: a DA app for your smartphone or mobile device! It will make it even easier to stay connected and find information about school events, news and policies. You’ll be hearing more about this over the next few weeks.   As always, feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns. Best wishes for  the coming year!     Carey Shultz
