Schools in Delaware deserve high-quality professional development in both instruction and educational leadership. National teacher shortages and high turnover rates for administrators have contributed to an urgent need for support in the classroom and strategies to address the complex challenges of leading a school or district. The University of Delaware’s School Success Center (SSC) responds to these needs through a comprehensive system of support.
Housed within the College of Education and Human Development (CEHD), the SSC brings together UD’s renowned Professional Development Center for Educators and Delaware Academy for School Leadership. Through its systemic approach, the SSC partners with teachers and administrators in public, charter, and independent schools to improve student and school outcomes.
I honestly can’t imagine our team without them! The positive impact they make in supporting our middle and high schools is undeniable.
