School Notes:

  • Welcome! Delphi Academy is a private, non-sectarian K-8 school in Santa Clara, CA. Our Mission: Give young people a rich academic background, a strong sense of ethics and a broad range of abilities to successfully launch them into higher education, a career and life itself. More broadly, help build a better world through effective education. How do we empower our students to "take on life"? Eight basic principles of the program lay out a fundamental philosophy:
  • 1. Empower Them as Students
  • 2. Get Personal
  • 3. Put Ethics & Integrity at the Center
  • 4. Fully Achieve the Basics
  • 5. Emphasize Literacy
  • 6. Keep it Real
  • 7. Involve Parents
  • 8. Demand Competence & Accountability, Not Time Spent
  • Delphi students go on weekly field trips to gain first hand knowledge and life experiences. They participate in clubs such as Student Council, Yearbook, Chess and Human Rights. They work as a team to be of benefit to their community with food and toy drives. They are encouraged to pursue their interests, are assisted to explore and understand a variety of potential professions, and to learn both independently and in group discussions. Students learn about current events, participate in a rich art program and have the opportunity to play competitive sports from the 4th grade and up. Physical education is an important part of the curriculum at all levels. Overall, academics are strong and "extras" are numerous and vital at Delphi Academy!
