the only words I have for this school is that it's the best! Teachers are truly committed to the child`s overall development, help the child learn to learn, and create an environment where the child truly flourishes. Develops a strong character in its students, like integrity, compassion, and respect and build skills like leadership through everyday learning at a very young age. There hasn`t been a single day in 5 yrs my son didn`t want to go to school in the morning and didn`t want to come back home in the evening. He loves his school, teachers, and friends.

The Delphi Academy of Campbell is a school focuses on learning rather than test scores. It has a well-rounded program with weekly field trips, music, art, sports, and academics. The staff and faculty are wonderful and caring.

My son started Delphi from kindergarten. Delphi offers individual pace for each kid and encourages them not only reach high academic standards but also develop well-rounded skills and take responsibility. We spend 2 years happily with Ms. Brenda and Ms. Maria in Delphi. For 2nd grade, we go to home school instead of Delphi since we moved to Sunnyvale, which makes the commute to Delphi, not an easy task. During the year I always worry about my son during the school day, transitions between home school and afternoon school. A family becomes a fight place to get him the same level of decent work as before. He simply did not care about the quality of work and lose his goal. After a year of struggling and fighting, we made our decision to go back to Delphi for 3rd grade. Since then everything goes back to order. I see how confident, responsible and positive he becomes, how capable he is now to make the correct choice, and how amazing he could calm me down sometimes with his learnings at school from communication class. Big thanks to Ms. Victoria and Delphi teachers and staff who always put the children first, who give each student the time and attention they need without creating stress. My family feels so lucky to be with Delphi again.

Our son Jojo will be graduating middle school this year. He has been a Delphi student since 2011, and I can confidently say that we could not have chosen a better school for him! Delphi has given him a strong foundation that has completely prepared him to handle high school with poise. Delphi's holistic approach to learning goes way beyond just academic learning. The school prepares students to become well-rounded socially-conscious adults. And last but not least, the school's after-school program and summer camp are the best things a working parent could hope for because Delphi makes logistics a non-issue. If you are looking for the best school experience for your child, look no further and enroll him/her at Delphi.

What did I found out after joining and spending 5 yrs? The school delivered everything it promised and more. There is nothing I don`t like about school. They don`t just focus on academics but overall child development and ensures the child is taught to love to learn and how to learn this school is the best thing you can do for your child. There is nothing I don`t like about this school and my son is thriving in the school. He loves to learn, there is no pressure for him to perform but he is doing great in every aspect!

My son attended Delphi Academy from K-8th grade and found the transition to high school very easy. He continues to get straight A's and is taking many honors classes. He gained excellent study habits and is involved in many activities. The friends he made at Delphi are still close even though they are not all at the same high school. This is a great school for entrance into a private Bay Area high school.
