Delmarva Christian Schools held a groundbreaking ceremony May 27, at its Georgetown campus for its Stronger Together capital campaign, a $32 million expansion project to unify its educational ministry under one campus and create new spaces for students.
The project, led by Lincoln-based contractor Richard Y. Johnson & Son, will include a new 60,000-square-foot middle school and high school facility, a new 12,000-square-foot early learning center for pre-K programs and a renovation of the existing high school to transform it into the future home of Delmarva Christian Elementary School.
“The journey of getting to this point has brought about quite a bit of emotions from time to time, and so we pause today to celebrate, but also to remember the journey the Lord has had us on to get [here],” said Head of School Matt Kwiatkowski.
Students, faculty, alumni, board members, community members and project leaders attended. Also present was Sen. Dave Wilson, R-Lincoln.
Project construction will begin in June and is expected to take about 18 months, pending weather and permits, said Justin Savini, the school’s director of advancement. With an expected end date in late December 2026 or early January 2027, school faculty will then have the following summer to move into the new facilities and prepare for an official fall 2027 opening.
The school has raised about $28.7 million so far and is hoping to raise another $3 million to $5 million to complete the project debt-free. Originally, the project was expected to cost $30 million, but that estimate has increased due to general cost increases and scope, Savini said.
The idea for the campaign was born eight or nine years ago, when Kwiatkowski, Savini, board President Marlene Brown and other school officials discussed the school’s future and shared a common vision of having one unified campus.
