The Delaware Student
Ambassadors Program

Delaware Student Success is excited to present the Student Ambassadors program! This program was created to promote the voice of Delaware high school students.

Delaware high school students are chosen to serve as interns for the Delaware Department of Education’s Higher Education Office to better meet the needs of Delaware students in planning for their futures.

Interns will play a role in all communications on the Delaware Student Success website, social media platforms, text messages and any written documents released from DHEO or DSS Collaborative.
