Global Technology School Opens with quite a collection

We have an exciting new school opening in Downtown Wilmington.

ACT Generation Global Technology School, is the first Audio& Visual, Communications, and Technology private business and trade school in the State of Delaware.  ACT Generation Global Technology School is part trade, part technology institution working closely with schools,  nonprofits, and religious based organizations partnering with some organizations for the S.T.E.M. Education program.

The school is hoping everyone comes out to learn more and to check out the largest private collection of Michael Jackson memorabilia with more than 5,000 pieces.

I am glad Travis Smith and his team chose Downtown Wilmington as the place to start this great new venture!

I hope to see you there!

Wilmington Inspires Students

I am so impressed with the men and women who live and work in Wilmington.

WDEL and the News Journal just reported a story about how officials with the city of Wilmington and Bank of America helped provide school supplies and personal notes of encouragement to more than 100 students who attend after-school programs at the William Hicks Anderson Community Center.
