DACC's Career Based Intervention students, housed out Dempsey Middle School and taught by Mrs. Nicki Wright, came up with a creative plan to give back to the community.

Ohio SkillsUSA recently held the annual Leadership and Skills Competition at the Columbus Convention Center. Three Delaware Area Career Center (DACC) students took first place in their specialty, four took second place, and one other took third. The three first place winners will be moving on to compete at the national level in Kansas City over the summer.

Thank you to BST&G Fire District for donating their ladder truck to the DACC Fire Service Program!

Congratulations to the DACC students who have qualified to attend the BPA National Competition!

There aren’t many high school students who wouldn’t love to hurl a textbook across the room. Over the last few weeks, it’s been the teachers throwing these textbooks as part of a “Self Defense Against Criminal Attack for School Employees” class that is being offered to Delaware Area Career Center (DACC) staff members. In April, this class will be available to the public.

Many of the students in Nicki Wright’s eight grade class had never held a conversation with someone who did not speak English, so when they were asked to represent their class and answer a few questions in front of eighteen Korean visitors, they were very nervous. Nicki is the Delaware Area Career Center Career-Based Intervention Instructor at Dempsey Middle School. When the Ohio Department of Education found out that a group of teachers in Korea wanted to learn more about Career-Based Intervention program, looking to Nicki Wright’s class was an easy decision.

It's senior project time at DACC and when Coral Dannatt decided to design a book, she decided to put a new spin on the idea.
