Thank you for visiting the Capital School District’s online home. We are excited to share with you information on our Schools, Programs and Community.
Our comprehensive strategic plan for the Capital School District provides the Framework for our district. We look at becoming a Linear and Streamlined District, to Meeting the Needs of the Whole Child, and building on our Senator Pride. The Capital School District is focused on Meeting the Needs of the Whole Child. The goal is to help our students reflect the Portrait of a Senator; students who are Learners, Respectful, Honest, Engaged, Compassionate, Accountable, Responsible, and Determined. We accomplish this with a comprehensive approach to Teaching and Learning that includes Delivery in a Safe and Supportive Environment, Built to be Standards Based, Organized for Personalized Learning, Focused on Rigorous Instruction, and Measured through Dynamic Assessment.
We are proud of Capital School District’s heritage here in Dover, DE.
Our staff members strive to become part of the community through living in Dover area, interacting with parents and families and becoming engaged with community activities. Our schools are blessed with the support of community partners and businesses. Locally, we have a wide variety of business and employment opportunities to ultimately prepare our students for careers beyond high school from Banking, Manufacturing, Hospitality, and Agriculture. Geographically we are also blessed being close to major centers for business (Wilmington, Philadelphia) and the arts (NY City), and opportunities for our students to see some of our country's most important historic landmarks in Washington DC.
