Howard T Ennis School

The Howard T. Ennis School in Georgetown, Delaware, stands as a beacon of inclusivity and educational excellence in the heart of Sussex County. Named after Howard T. Ennis, a prominent Delaware educator known for his dedication to special education, this institution serves students with complex cognitive and physical disabilities, aged 3 to 21.

The school’s campus is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities designed to accommodate students with diverse needs. From sensory rooms and therapy spaces to adaptive technology and accessible classrooms, every aspect of the environment is carefully crafted to promote learning, independence, and inclusion. Moreover, the school places a strong emphasis on community involvement, encouraging family engagement, volunteerism, and partnerships with local organizations to enrich students’ educational experiences.

One standout feature is the exterior walls of the school that use Fabral Box Rib HCF Wall Panels. Carefully selected by the architects, these panels come in various colors and profiles, seamlessly blending both vertical and horizontal orientations to achieve a pristine, modern look.  The Box Rib HCF (horizontal concealed fastener) System is available in a range of profiles and configurations for architectural, commercial and industrial applications. With one to four ribs, this strong, durable wall panel system provides design versatility and performance. An interlocking sidelap hides fasteners and can be installed with or without clips to accommodate thermal movement.

The Howard T. Ennis School exemplifies Delaware’s commitment to creating inclusive educational opportunities for all students. The new facility sets a high standard for accessibility, innovation, and excellence in special education.
