Dr. Betty Shabazz Delta Academy is a youth enrichment program.  Delta Academy, established in 1996, responds to the urgent need to rescue young females (ages 11-14) from academic failure, low self-esteem, and uncertain futures. It serves as a platform for local chapters to supplement the education of teens in public schools nationwide, focusing on enhancing their scholarship in math, science, and technology, while fostering leadership through service learning. The program aims to equip young girls to become effective leaders in the 21st Century. Delta Academy offers Saturday programs regular meetings throughout the school year.
