Victoria Henry
Bachelor of Science in Education
For as long as she can remember, Victoria Henry has wanted to become a teacher. She has always loved being in school and learning and was inspired to follow this career path from the teachers she had growing up.
"I want to be the first person besides a parent or guardian to make an impact on a child's life and help build the foundation for the rest of their educational career," Henry said.
Henry enrolled at Delaware Tech because she could follow her dream of becoming a teacher while continuing her favorite pastime – playing softball.
"I started playing travel softball when I was 8 and played on the middle school and high school teams as well," Henry said. "Just being on a team really helps with building character and it always helps to break up doing all of my homework."
Henry was a member of the Delaware Tech softball team that won back-to-back region and district championships and earned berths in the NJCAA National Championship Softball Tournament. The team won a game in the national tournament in 2021.
"It was amazing," Henry said.
When she started at Delaware Tech, Henry challenged herself to maintain her 4.0 GPA, which she has proudly maintained since her freshman year of high school. Despite moving to online classes during the pandemic and balancing practice and game schedules with the softball team, she has done just that.
"School and education challenges me," Henry said. "It has made me very organized and improved my work ethic."
Besides being a member of the softball team, Henry is also part of the Education Club, and has participated in Educator's Rising, a national organization that helps cultivate young educators by guiding their path from high school through college and into their teaching careers. Henry first participated in Educator's Rising while in high school, when she and a fellow classmate authored, illustrated, and published a children's book. Delaware Tech's chapter within the organization is new and plans to compete in state and national competitions next year.
Henry graduated high school in the spring of 2020, which meant she didn't have a proper high school graduation due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Her in-person graduation from the elementary education associate degree program also didn't happen because she was with the softball team at the national tournament in Alabama.
After graduation with her associate degree, Henry immediately applied to be part of the inaugural class of students accepted into the College's Bachelor of Science in Education program. Besides continuing her education at Delaware Tech, Henry also had a third year of eligibility to play softball due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
