Delphian School

Delphi and is a magical place to get an education. The proficiency based curriculum and incredibly caring staff put you as the student in charge of your own education. There is no pointless memorization for tests. I am able to and use my education to better my life. I cannot wait till my daughter is old enough to attend

Both of my children currently attend the Delphian School. My oldest is seventeen and will be graduating this spring, my youngest is enjoying her first year at Delphian. Amazing as it may sound, my relationships with both my children have strengthened since they've been enrolled. We've always had a loving, caring family. But they've both blossomed through the Delphian Program to become even more responsible, more thoughtful and better leaders of themselves and others. Though the challenges have been great, both my wife and I wouldn't have our children anywhere else for high school.

My daughter has been attending the Delphian School since last November and she absolutely loves it!! She's so motivated in her studies, loves doing her homework every night and looks forward to going to school each and every day. I love that the school offers a bus service from McMinnville, it's incredibly convenient. They also do so many fun field trips and weekly activities like gymnastics and swimming classes. I highly recommend sending your child to this school, it's been one of the best things we've ever done for our daughter.

I'm very proud to say that I'm a grateful who's son attended the school.
Even though it was only for one year and a summer camp, this school make a remarkable positive change on my shy and not as outgoing kid. After experiencing The Delphian School he's life just change and only got better and better. The study technology the school uses and the awesome activity programs is what makes the difference from any other school.
I'll recommend this school to everyone no matter how good or not your student is as I had the best experience coming from a mom who changed her son from at least 5 different other public and private schools.

I just graduated from the Delphian School. I used to go to school in China, and I started my high school education here three years ago. I am so lucky that I chose Delphian and it chose me as well.I found so many intelligent and hardworking people at the school. I thought I was good in many areas before I came to the Delphian School, but I have seen students who are outstanding. I saw the gap between those people and me, and it encouraged me to work harder. The Delphian school is special because although everyone has his individual program, our purpose is the same. We learn from each other, practice to become more competent leaders, and to find out who we really are. We work hard for ourselves, not for anyone else.

The Delphian School helped me learn to take higher responsibility, use myself as the resource to solve problems, lead others, keep my integrity and show my integrity. I am grateful for all my experiences here. The Delphian School has provided me opportunities to fail, to learn about myself and to restart. I used to believe that a school only focuses on its top students, but Delphian totally changed that idea. Everyone at the school loves every student, and students truly care about each other.

The Delphian School is like no other. Since my daughter has been attending she has become so enthusiastic about studying and academics its unbelievable. She has made so many friends and her social life has improved by leaps and bounds. She is happy and loves all the activities and school trips. I highly recommend this school to anyone who wants their child to have a stellar education and a lot of exposure to international students and a wide pool of subjects and extra curricular activities to satisfy a growing child's mind. My daughter is 12 years old and has been boarding since she was 11 years old coming home on the weekends.

I brought my son to Delphian when he was second grade age. He had been behind in (and hated) math, and was having at least some difficulty in a number of different areas.

After he got his first program from Delphian and started on it, he began to love math, and his progress in that subject forwarded about a year and a half in just a few months.

My son is now in the upper school, and he has attended Delphian the whole time. I could go on and on (and on) about my son's academic progress since we first arrived, but I will sum it up to say that his education has been phenomenal - he loves school, is quite meticulous about his work and has progressed beautifully. In fact, in a number of areas he is far more educated than I am. As an example of this, he corrects my grammar on a regular basis! =)

At almost 15 years of age, he has decided that his direction in life is to become a writer. His writing - due to his education - is wonderful! He has been writing books on his own, and loves to use his imagination and articulates it in his writing beautifully.

In addition to his educational progress, his attitude toward life is quite positive, his level of responsibility is far higher than I would have ever dreamed it would be - especially for someone his age.

After years at Delphian, I can say that I would never, ever, ever even consider having him at another school. I absolutely love the environment, the staff are wonderful and the fact that they help kids toward their passionate directions in life is like a dream come true.

I am forever grateful for what Delphian has done not only for my son, but their guidance has actually helped our entire family.

I attended Delphian for high school in the 90s. I now have two children (ages 12 and 14) who both attend Delphian. My own experience as a student there was life-changing. I had previously attended public schools for most of my education, as well as two smaller private schools for short periods of time. In my prior education I excelled in math and science, but became bored with these subjects because I felt the class moved at too slow a pace. I became disinterested. On the other hand, I had always struggled with history and often felt lost in class. At Delphian, I was able to move at the pace that was right for me on each subject--sometimes I did courses faster than average and sometimes I needed some extra time. I became EXCITED about my education again for the first time in years!

The other aspect of Delphian that was so meaningful to me was the connections I made with the faculty and students. I knew every single faculty member was there because they truly loved and cared about the students. I formed life-long relationships with quite a few faculty members, and these have continued to be important connections for me throughout the years. I still stay in touch regularly with many of the students I went to school with twenty years ago. There is something special about Delphian's close-knit community. I wanted my children to benefit from the same education I received, and so far I would say their experiences at Delphian may even be exceeding my own!

Delphian School has had a remarkable effect on my teenage children. Not only are they very well-educated in the basic school curriculum, they LOVE to study. Their personal development has also been amazing. They know how to organize and work and get things done. Their self-respect and their recognition of social and civic responsibility are remarkable in this day and age of selfies and the me-generation. I am so proud of the young people they have become, and I thank that high school for a big part of that.

Delphian has the best school curriculum any child could ask. My daughter is really enjoying her time there, and by that, I mean she's truly attaining knowledge. She's learning about life and discovering about freedoms and barriers within her own abilities. That's what I loved about Delphian... My daughter is finding out, learning and preparing to take on the challenges of life! Thank you Delphian!

Both of my kids are currently enrolled in the Delphian School. They've always done fairly well in school, but now they are both thriving! Disabilities in math and reading have disappeared. They have a new excitement about learning and increasing their abilities. They are busy, busy, busy with projects, classes and activities.

If you want your child to be happy, productive, intelligent, artistic and prepared for life, this is the place to send them!

Delphi sets the standard for the best quality education possible. My children and grandchildren have all attended Delphi. Each person is helped to discover his gifts and passion so he can make his education his own, and so he can get the most out of the Delphi experience. Whether it is becoming a professional artist, business owner, musician, athlete, Doctor, Delphi sees that students find their interests and that apprenticeships occur; students get to work with top people in the industry. Students are challenged and become competent. It's a wonderful and positive environment! Does it even get any better?!

I graduated from ​the ​Delphian School in 2017. The eight years I spent there were filled with fantastic memories. Delphian is truly like no other school.

At first I wasn’t sure what it would​ be like living three thousand miles away from home. Thankfully the students and staff made Delphian my home away from home. The staff truly care about your growth; and the students help each other study, do projects and so much more. At Delphian there aren’t ​cliques, just students who want to learn ​and help each other​. It doesn’t matter where you come from or what you believe in, all are welcome.

My favorite part of Delphian academics was learning how to study. ​I learned about the barriers you come across while studying and how to handle them. Here at Delphian you learn how to study any subject and how to apply it to your life.

When my daughter was a baby I knew I wanted to find the best education possible for her. We started with Montessori, which was nice and on the right track, then continued to an impressively staffed private school which was okay. Our worst year was when we tried the honors program at public school. We both knew this was not what we wanted. It was after that horrible year in public school that we found the Applied Scholastics program at Delphian. Far and away this was what I had hoped for and my daughter knew it too. She begged me to go to this school! The rest is history! I can proudly announce that my daughter is a graduate of Delphian. There is no school like this one, anywhere! Their programs are foolproof and inspiring in the most positive ways. EVERY graduate grows into this accomplished, well poised, full of life masterpiece of a person! Every one of the graduates' speeches are awe inspiring and heart swelling. I plan to send my next three children there too! Find out about this school! You will be amazed with what your child can accomplish in the Delphian program.

I got the chance to take a look at the Delphian School here in Oregon. I went to the Delphian School in Los Angeles, and have always wanted to visit the boarding school here. It is so so beautiful, and all the students and teachers were very happy and productive. I had the opportunity to watch the choir perform, and to get a full tour from a student at the school. The grounds are wonderful, the program is great, and the students are thriving. This school left me with a great impression. My husband and I are looking at having children soon, and there is no question that when they are of the correct age, they will go to Delphian.

Delphian has a great program where student comprehension and use of data studied is of paramount importance; students learn data, then learn to use it. The faculty helped my son find a reason to study and use the subject studied, be it math, science, history, etc. My experience with my son attending was that he developed a love of reading and writing while at Delphian. Faculty worked with me and my wife to ensure we understood how he was doing. The faculty's care for my son was evident because my son enjoyed school.

Delphian is an amazing boarding school that creates competent leaders, artists, entrepreneurs, and most importantly learners. It's unique study program teaches students how to study by themselves at the best of their ability. It's different in a way that it gives individuals the essential skills of studying that no other place can offer. Students use those skills to work on their self-paced individual programs.

Delphian offers a very broad practical program that is based on student's individual career interest. Students do numerous projects from community help to working with professionals in their career fields.

Delphian has been an incredible journey for me and changed me as a person.

I cannot say enough about the Delphian school and what they have done not only for my sons education but for our family dynamic all around ! When we enrolled our son at the Delphian School in January he was a bit behind academically . His previous school had reported that he had passed his academic levels in math , reading , writing , etc but they had actually taken him through without him really retaining and comprehending the data . In less than a few weeks his teacher at the Delphian School had taken him back to where he did understand the data and moved him through the books ensuring along the way he could actually duplicate and apply it. My son is actually reading now !!! Proud mom over here !! They take field trips , they get to be in a science lab , do pottery, cook, and explore the beautiful lands around the school ! He is busy all day long and when i pick him up at the end of the day he is so happy , talkative , and engaging !! My husband and i are so impressed and our home life has just been thriving even more !! The staff at the Delphian School are the kindest , most loving , and caring people that take such amazing care of the students ! They email me , text me , send me photos and keep me informed daily! The exchange is above and beyond! This is truly the best school on the planet !

Delphian is amazing!!! It's the best school to prepare your kids for their life so that they can be the best they can be at whatever they decide to do.
I've been wanting to send my kids there for years. And we finally moved to Oregon and they started at the beginning of the school year. I can already see a difference in them. They are happy and more "grown up". They do all kinds of activities that they would not get a chance to do in any other school. They do field trips, archery, arts, forestry, choir,... and the academics are excellent! The teachers are so dedicated and so competent! There is an amazing complement of staff who all work in the same direction: giving the kids the best tools they can have for their future.
I know without a doubt that this is the best thing I can do for my kids and the best investment I can put into their future.

What to say? Delphian is one of the best, if not the best, solutions for a young person preparing for life. I say simply "solution" rather than using "academic" solution or any other modifier, as Delphian truly covers all bases. Yes, they are academic giants (how about a program where each student gets 100% in order to "pass" anything), but they're so much more. Life activities, practical assignments, social engagement, field trips (near, far -- global), athletics and physical development, opportunities to excel at every turn -- Delphian is a full-on, getting-ready-to-be-amazing-at-life solution. I love it. And I guess, maybe, that would be the thing I would emphasize most. The love. The absolute caring for each and every kid, the pure safety of the environment, the positive encouragement and validation as each young person makes their way toward self discovery and plots their way into the future ... honestly, if Delphian were teaching how to stack rocks it would still be the most amazing place to be. I would totally have my son there learning to stack rocks. :-) So, what to say? Go to Delphian, that's what I say. Your future will never be the same.
