About the School

  • The Board, administration, teachers and parents of Delta Academy believe that a school system should provide a basic academic curriculum for both college bound students and those who plan to enter the workforce.
  • We believe that a school should endeavor to develop creativity, independence, integrity, honesty and respect for authority, property and the rights of others.
  • Honor can be learned, and at Delta Academy we have included it as an integral part of each student's learning experience.
  • We believe that the teacher is the ultimate component in providing the varied learning opportunities in a controlled atmosphere of free expression and student participation.
  • All faculty members and administrators are expected to be professional at all times.
  • The teachers not only must facilitate learning to stimulate it, guide it and ensure that it happens but must develop inquiry and value clarification among their students.
