Admissions

Although most students enroll in September, the highly individualized nature of the Delphi program allows qualified students to enroll at other times during the school year, space permitting. Priority is given to those eligible students first completing the full application procedure. Tuition and materials fees are prorated according to the date of enrollment.

Spaces are available for mid-term and January enrollment and will be filled on a first-come, first-serve basis for qualified applicants.

Choosing ‘the right’ school for your child–one that fosters growth, instills a strong moral code, makes the pursuit of knowledge enjoyable, combines learning with demonstrated application, and helps create dreamers, doers and leaders–is a parent’s ultimate goal. That school is rare indeed and should be sought out. My wife and I truly believe we have found that gem at Delphi Academy.”

I recently completed an Initial WASC visit to Delphi Academy of Los Angeles. Nestled in the beautiful foothills of the Angeles National Forest, Delphi has been empowering students since 1984 with a clear mission: to help students improve the condition of their lives and communities through knowledge, reason, creativity, and integrity.

What stood out during my visit:

Proficiency-Based Learning: Students advance by demonstrating true understanding rather than simply completing grade levels. Each learner progresses at their ideal pace—a refreshing approach to individualized education.

Meaningful Relationships: With small class sizes every student receives genuine one-on-one attention from teachers who truly care about their success.

Study Technology: The school equips students with practical tools to overcome learning barriers, helping them develop deep comprehension skills that extend far beyond the classroom.

Real-World Application: The curriculum ensures students don’t just memorize—they can meaningfully apply what they’ve learned.

During stakeholder interviews, the consistent theme was personalized attention and care. Parents praised the in-depth conferences that provide clear insights into their child’s progress, while students appreciated developing genuine understanding rather than surface-level knowledge.

Particularly impressive was that over 50% of current students are second-generation Delphi learners—a powerful testament to the lasting impact of their educational approach.

Thank you to Cindy Gainsforth and the team at Delphi!
