Dr. William Fuller Executive Director of Alternative Education

Principal William Fuller earned his undergraduate degree in Education at the University of Delaware. He continued his education at Wilmington University earning his Doctorate in School Leadership. He comes to us with an array of experience in education, administration, counseling, and rehabilitation of urban youth and young adults. For ten years, he worked in the classroom as a middle school teacher in the toughest streets of Wilmington and Philadelphia. He spent five years teaching as an adjunct English instructor at Delaware Technical & Community College. Mr. Fuller also worked at the New Castle County Detention Center for four years, providing counseling, discipline and rehabilitation to troubled youth.

Growing up in the same streets that his students reside in has given him an understanding that no formal training could provide. Mr. Fuller brings with him not only an extensive formal education, but also the ability to relate and stand as a role model for the youth that he is rehabilitating.
