Class of 2026 Senior Photos
As we move into your senior year, it is time to schedule your senior portraits. There are multiple dates available over the summer and you can select the date that works best for you. There are multiple session options - the Silver package has no sitting fee and allows for 12 photos to be taken and 3 outfits. However, if you would like additional shots or outfits, you can select the platinum or gold package.
The uniform for senior pictures is NSUs with ribbons or Service Dress Blues for CPO and above.  All grooming and uniform standards must be met including hair and shaving – you will be inspected before photos are taken and you will not be photographed unless you meet NJROTC standards. Failure to meet grooming or uniform standards may result in a rebooking fee. Please plan accordingly.
Appointments can be scheduled at https://seniors.legacystudios.com/delaware-military-academy-wilmington-de/

GRADES

DMA Grading Scale
A = 90 - 100 | B = 80 - 89
C = 70 - 79 | D = 66 - 69

Our academic program is intended to ensure that every graduate is prepared, and qualified, to enter a 4-year post-secondary program of study.  There are no general courses offered at DMA and all cadets are expected to participate in the college prep, hours, AP, or dual enrollment programs.  Our teachers have high standards in the classroom and cadets are expected to work at a high level each day to ensure they are prepared for the rigors of college, the armed services, or the corporate world.
