Ninety-three Delaware public high school students from the Class of 2026 have received recognition as Secretary of Education Scholars from Education Secretary Cindy Marten.
The honored students were celebrated at a special dinner event held in Dover, where Governor Matt Meyer and additional state officials joined Secretary Marten to acknowledge their achievements.
During the ceremony, Marten emphasized the deliberate nature of academic success. “Excellence like we see here tonight doesn’t happen by accident. It is built day by day, decision [by decision],” she stated.
The recognition highlights the academic accomplishments of these students who represent Delaware’s public school system and are set to graduate in 2026.
