The United Way of Delaware County Women’s Leadership Network is offering multiple scholarships to current sophomore or junior DACC students.
Scholarships are intended to help cover the cost of educational resources such as a Chromebook, tools, uniform, program fees, or opportunities related to the field of study at DACC, excluding college tuition or books. Scholarships may vary in amount, based on student needs. This is a great opportunity for the 2025-26 school year.

The application can be found here. Be sure to download the file to your computer before filling it out. Completed applications should be returned to a DACC Counselor or Lisa-Marie Reinhart, Career Readiness Coordinator, ReinhartL@DelawareAreaCC.org by Monday, May 5.

We would like to remind you that fees for the 2024-2025 school year are now due. You can check your fee balances on PowerSchool.

At the Delaware Area Career Center, we prioritize the well-being and academic success of our students. If a student feels unwell after they have already arrived on campus, we encourage them to visit the clinic, where our healthcare professional will provide care and support. In the event that a student needs to go home, we will personally contact a parent or guardian to arrange this. The student will then be able to leave directly from the clinic as soon as their ride arrives, streamlining the process for everyone.
We kindly ask that students refrain from directly contacting parents to pick them up during school hours. This approach ensures minimal disruption to classes and allows our teachers to maintain an effective learning environment. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding in this collaborative effort to support our students' health and education.
Regardless of the first day of school in your home district, transportation will be running from the home schools to DACC beginning August 14th.
If you know in advance that your child will be absent or tardy, fill out the Absence Form found on our website or the homepage of the DACC app.
See our Attendance FAQ for more information as well as calendars to all of our home schools and contact information for home school transportation departments.
