For the third consecutive year, Delta Middle School has been named a School of Distinction by College For Every Student. College For Every Student (www.collegefes.org) is a national non-profit that helps underserved students prepare for, gain access to, and succeed in college. Twenty schools in eight states were recognized as “Schools of Distinction” for their efforts in creating high levels of college awareness and aspirations among their students. DMS is one of just a handful of schools across the country which has earned this honor three years in a row.
