School Notes:
  • The Delaware Military Academy is a publicly funded charter high school in Wilmington, Delaware USA. It is considered a Military High School because all Students, or cadets as they are called, are required to participate in the Navy Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps—the first such school in the United States.
  • Location: The DMA lies within the boundaries of Red Clay Consolidated School District, but being a charter school is not part of it. The school's address is 112 Middleboro Road, Wilmington DE 19804. The site is located in proximity to a housing development, the Christiana River, and several light industrial and commercial operations. Two buildings currently exist. The first, called Talley Hall, contains classrooms, administrative offices, the nurses office and a small library. The second, slightly newer Naval Science building contains a cafeteria, gymnasium, NJROTC offices, classrooms, and science labs.
  • Academics: The schools curriculum, due to its small size, is limited compared to other high schools. Altough it is limited, the school recieved the Superior School rating from the state of Delaware.
