Abstract

Delaware's ranking as 45th in the nation for education outcomes highlights the multifaceted challenges and influences affecting children's development and education in the state. This paper explores how student success is measured in Delaware and the impact social determinants of health have on youth outcomes, including chronic absence, homelessness, nutrition, poverty, and adverse childhood experiences. By addressing these interconnected issues, Delaware can work towards closing achievement gaps and improving educational experiences for all students. Findings underscore the necessity for comprehensive support systems within schools informed by empirical evidence to foster a conducive learning environment and improve student outcomes. By addressing the social determinants of health driving educational challenges, policymakers can take a comprehensive approach to enhance the well-being and academic success of all children in Delaware.
