Best education and overall experience of my life. The staff and students became like family to me and I have maintained those connections 20 years later. They truly have revolutionized education to be effective and rewarding.

As a graduate of this school, I can say with confidence that this was the best educational path I could have taken. The tools it gave me and the information I learned, along with the level of responsibility, integrity and ethics I left with set me up for life. I credit the school for the success I am experiencing today. I would recommend it a thousand times over!

I went to the Delphian School from 1995 and graduated in 2001, and I have never forgotten how this school has molded me into the successful person that I am today. It brought out my creative business ideas, my ability to run groups of people so we all succeed and it made me very determined and tough. I was able to learn how to overcome setbacks, be diligent and stick to a plan of action and follow it through to completion. I am still in touch with many of my friends that I made and it's been 15 years. This school was awesome.

I love that the students can go at their own pace. It doesn't hold a child back if they excel in an area, but also does not push them too fast if they need more attention in an area. It's the way all schools should run!

I loved the tailor-made programs and the incredible friendships I made there. The teachers all really care about you and always are there to help if needed.

Delphian puts each student in control of their education, empowering them to learn what they want to learn and what they need to learn to succeed in life.

The school allows children of all interests and abilities to flourish, emphasizing mastery of material rather than tests. The facilities are the very best. The students are interested and engaged, intelligent and creative, curious and caring. The student-teacher ratio is great as is the quality of teaching.

The school is in a beautiful location with excellent facilities, a low student-teacher ratio, high standards, and a philosophy to allow students to move at their own pace, with mastery as the goal vs. just checking certain boxes. The students there are engaged, creative, thoughtful and kind.

I went to Delphian when I was a kid. It was one of the most enriching experiences of my life.

My son disliked reading, math and pretty much every subjects except PE prior to enrolling. After a short couple of years his love for reading went from -50 to +100, he became interested in his education and studies because he wants to and not because he has to. I am very satisfied with the changes I saw in him while he was at Delphian and for what I continue to see every day. Thank you!!

I like that I can always reach my children's teachers. They will answer email within the same day and return calls quickly. My kids come home and are usually full of stories about what they learned and the exciting things they did in school. I love that there are so many options for them. My oldest loves sports and high tech and my youngest is really into art and music. The school is very well rounded.

Delphian is a great school. Our 3 kids attend Delphian and they are all totally blossoming in their own interests and are motivated to go to school each and motivated to learn. Our oldest is graduating this year and he has had the opportunity to really dive in to his career interests and test them out to make sure he's on the right path as well. I'm just so impressed with this school and with the quality of educational and hands-on learning our kids are receiving. Totally worth the investment!

I was fortunate to get to attend Delphi a couple of years after it opened. It was the most fantastic educational experience I had and I want this for my own children. Students study one subject at a time for proficiency, not memorization or tests, at their own pace and with plenty of help from staff. There is an overall program of standards and subjects to be mastered and completed but each student's program is individually tailored based on that student's talents, interests and abilities. I can't speak about current staff but I do go visit the school occasionally as I want to get my own children there when they're a little older but the environment has always been positive, supportive of academic excellence and individual achievement and entirely free of the drugs, violence and social poisons of public schools. I went there, I want to send my kids to go to school there and I would recommend it to any student or parent, without hestitation.

I am an educator in a California public school district. I first viewed the school from an educator's point of view - not of that of parent looking for the best opportunity for her child. As an educator, I'm jealous of the structure at Delphi. The curricular program is based on proficiency of material - NOT time in class. Students have the time they need to complete their studies to 100% proficiency . . . Amazing! As a parent, I'm thrilled with the education my son is receiving at Delphian. He started at Delphian 1/2 way through his middle school years. He is now a senior. I am convienced and so sure that the young man that I call son, would not have the capacity and hunger for learning that my son has. Words can hardly describe the transformation students go through while learning, living, leading, and growing at Delphian. If you can send your child to the Delphian School it is money well invested.

I attended school at The Delphian School for 4 years of HS and graduated in 1986. I am also the parent of a child attending one of their sister schools in Los Angeles. This school truly gave me the foundation and tools to achieve my goals. As a student, the staff became a second family to me and the education was far beyond my expectations. I couldn't recommend it more!

I am an alumni from this school and all I can say is WOW! The Delphian School was such a great experience for me! One of my favorite parts was growing up in a safe environment, however fully aware of the world around me. The school's program made it so I could grow up as a smart, caring, capable individual ready to go and make some changes to this planet, even if it's just as small as working at a school or tutoring some children who need some help in their studies. Also, when I was applying to colleges, I had such a great amount of them to choose from! Not only that, the colleges I got accepted to, I got scholarships to them! These colleges included Linfield, Notre Dame de Namur, American Music and Dramatic Academy, UC Merced and Musicians Institute. Delphi is a great school with great results! I highly recommend the program to anyone! If you have any doubts about going for the full year, try summer or just go and visit the school and get a tour! I'm sure you're going to LOVE IT!
