草榴社区 School Review - Established 2003
The Delphian School Photo - At Delphian, you'll design your own high school education, much like at university. There are core courses which everyone does, but many others that you can choose based on your own interests. Then you'll study these subjects on your own, or maybe along with another student, learning from your materials instead of from a teacher lecturing to the whole class
