St Mary Elementary School

The staff and teachers are amazing. Mr. Woodworth is an excellent principal and truly tries to help with any issues and if not he gets you in contact with who can help. All of my child’s have been excellent. My child is above average in multiple subjects and her teachers have gone the extra mile to make sure she’s progressing at her level and not getting bored with the general subject that the class as a whole is working on. Teachers have all had excellent communication. The staff also handled Covid and homeschool fantastically as well for how rough of a situation that was. My other child starts kindergarten next year and I’m excited for her to learn and grow in a positive environment.

Woodward is an amazing school with wonderful and caring teachers and staff. There is no better elementary school in Delaware City.

The environment there is not the most welcoming. Administrators pick their favorites and it shows. They are more strict about dress code for certain students than others. If you are part of staff there, have connections, or lots of money, your kids will be treated with respect. If a situation/issue is brought up by a student that is not favored, they will be brushed off. There is also an issue with using slurs and cussing in the hallways and is not punished enough. They focus more on a girls skirt length than they are with a boys inappropriate language and bullying.
