How it Began
Delphi Schools
In 1973, Delphi Schools, Inc.™ was formed by a dedicated group of educators with a vision for a new kind of school—a school that encompassed more than academics, that developed in each student a strong sense of personal ethics, conviction and purpose, that didn’t advance a student based on age but by accomplishment and instilled in each student the basic tools of study not just to “get by” but to learn anything.
Delphian School
Delphi Schools is now a non-profit organization dedicated to revitalizing education through effective primary, elementary, and secondary schools. It licenses the use of its name and the Delphi Program, which provides a standardized curriculum, common teaching and administrative methods, and a comprehensive curriculum training program that ensures consistency and effectiveness within the network.
The founding school of the Delphi Schools Network is the Delphian School, a thriving boarding and day school campus of 270 students from kindergarten through high school. Delphian School is located in Sheridan, Oregon, in the beautiful Willamette Valley. Situated on a 720-acre campus fifty miles southwest of Portland, near the city of McMinnville, thirty minutes west of Oregon’s capital city of Salem, and forty-five minutes from the scenic Oregon coast. It also serves as an educational facility for the Network as well as any educators interested in using the curriculum or in starting a school of their own.
