The Delphi
Program has been designed from the ground up to help students
of any age prepare themselves for learning and life. Applied to K-12 schools and offered by Delphi Schools, Inc., the
eight basic principles of the program lay out a fundamental
philosophy. Very few things could be more important to a parent
or a student than understanding a school's philosophy.
