KENT COUNTY SECONDARY ILC

Kent County Secondary ILC is a Title I public high school that is part of the Capital School District school district, located in Dover, DE with about 100 students offering grade levels from 6th Grade to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 15 teachers, Kent County Secondary ILC has a student/teacher ratio of about 6:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

The Kent County Secondary Intensive Learning Center (ILC), located in Dover, Delaware, is a specialized educational facility operating under the Capital School District. It is designed to provide a structured and supportive environment for students who require alternative educational pathways beyond the traditional classroom setting. The center focuses on meeting the unique academic, social, and emotional needs of students, ensuring they remain engaged in their education while working toward grade-level mastery and eventual transition or graduation.

As part of the Capital School District, the ILC emphasizes a personalized approach to instruction, often utilizing smaller class sizes and targeted interventions to help students overcome behavioral or academic challenges. By maintaining close communication with home schools and district resources, the center aims to help students regain academic standing and develop the necessary skills to succeed in future educational or vocational pursuits.
