Exciting things are happening in the Colonial School District - New Castle, De, and I’m so glad to be part of it!

This morning, we broke ground on a brand-new, state-of-the-art multisport stadium and athletic complex at William Penn High School. The new facility will include turf fields for both baseball and softball, a tennis and pickleball stadium, and new lighting that will allow the band and the sports teams to make the most of this new space!

There will also be an outdoor classroom designed by WPHS students for the entire district to use.

This project is not only an investment in today’s students, but also future generations of Colonials, alumni, parents, and the entire community. And it wouldn’t be possible without the support of the community, which approved this project through a referendum.

I’m so excited to see this vision come to life and, before long, see students and families filling these fields and courts!

On August 26th, 1920, the 19th Amendment, giving women the right to vote, officially became a part of the United States Constitution.

On Women’s Equality, we acknowledge all the work it took for us to achieve the freedom and rights we have today. Only by working together can we ensure continued gender equality.

August 21st marks National Senior Citizen Day. This day provides us an opportunity to recognize the ongoing contributions of our aging populations to our communities and state.

Aging is something we all must do, which is why we must continue to consider our aging populations in everything we do.

Today, we celebrated the future home of Kiddie Academy of Bear! Although my children are now grown, I still remember as if it were yesterday when my husband and I spent months searching for a safe and caring center where our babies could learn and grow. Thankfully, we found one right here in our community, and soon, families will have another great option with the opening of Kiddie Academy of Bear.

Kiddie Academy will offer programs for children from infancy through age 12, helping prepare our youngest learners to thrive in school and in life.

Congratulations to the entire Kiddie Academy team! I’m excited to watch this new center take shape right here in our district, and I can’t wait to return for the grand opening.
