Worcester Wednesday Supports First Tee - Delaware

3/26/2026

Berlin, MD – In February, students and faculty at Worcester Preparatory School (WPS) came together to support First Tee – Delaware by students and faculty participating in an all-school red, white, and blue dress-down day.

Worcester Prep proudly supported First Tee - Delaware, a non-profit youth development organization that positively impacts more than 25,000 kids and teens each year through school, community, and on-the-course programs. By integrating the game of golf with a life skills curriculum, First Tee - Delaware builds inner strength, confidence, and resilience while teaching nine core values: Honesty, Integrity, Sportsmanship, Respect, Responsibility, Confidence, Courtesy, Judgment, and Perseverance.

A special thank you to student sponsor Chase Thompson for bringing awareness to this meaningful cause within our school community. Students and faculty participated in an all-school red, white, and blue dress-down day, donating $5 to support the organization’s impactful work. In total, Worcester Prep raised $1,938 towards First Tee – Delaware. On Tuesday, March 24, Chase presented Scott Allen, First Tee Senior Southern Delaware Coordinator, with a check.

Founded in 1970, Worcester Preparatory School is a private, independent Pre-Kindergarten through Grade 12 school located in Berlin, Maryland. Approximately 500 students attend from Maryland, Delaware, and Virginia. For more information about WPS, please visit www.worcesterprep.org or call 410.641.3575.
