History
Delcastle opened in the fall of 1969 as the New Castle County Vocational-Technical School in response to an increased demand for vocational schools in Delaware.[4][5][6] As the county's only vocational-technical high school, it was overwhelmingly popular; by 1971, they were receiving applications from more than three times the number of students they had capacity for.[7] By 1973, the county began planning three additional vocational-technical schools to help handle the extreme interest in Delcastle.[8]
