The New Hodgson High School (In Progress)

Hodgson Vocational Technical High School is one of the four vocational schools that make up New Castle County’s Vocational-Technical School District (NCCVT). The district’s vision to deliver world-class programs to equip students with 21st century skills is particularly close to our hearts at EDiS – and vocational and technical schools have been gaining in popularity again across the country over the past decade. Since the beginning of the pandemic, the gains have skyrocketed – and now the proportion of high-schoolers who are considering a four-year education has dropped from 71 percent to 48 percent.

Our EDiS team is beyond excited to construct one of Delaware’s largest public school projects to date, the new Hodgson Vocational Technical High School. The project’s scale, unique programs, and site logistics will make a measurable impact on the future generations who attend, as well as the broader New Castle community.

As Delaware’s most experienced school builder, having constructed $640,850,000 and 2,850,000 SF worth of work in public high school new and renovation work alone, our team at EDiS is uniquely qualified to help the district, the educators at Hodgson, and the rest of the design team define what a state-of-the-art vocational and technical high school looks like. Of the 9 new high schools built in Delaware since 2000, EDiS has built 8.
