Delphi Academy in Santa Monica, California
 Delphi Academy of Santa Monica, CA is an independent, coeducational, non-sectarian day school offering a kindergarten through 6th grade program (ages 3.5 to 12). Delphi Academy of Santa Monica is one of several schools in the Delphi Schools Network, a group of independent schools sharing uniquely developed curriculum and teaching methods. Academics focus is on providing students with a solid grounding in the basics of reading, writing and mathematics; a rich and challenging hands-on curriculum, immersion in art and music, and the ability to study purposefully and, ultimately, independently.
Located on 4th Street in downtown Santa Monica, campus facilities include a multi-purpose room, outdoor play area, music space, art room, seven classrooms and access to the local beach, city parks and the YWCA which has a full gym. The classrooms are fully equipped with their own library and resource centers as well as a puppet theater and a variety of practical activities for the younger students. During the summer months, the school enjoys access to Santa Monica City College and YMCA pools.
Rather than place or advance a child based on age or number of months spent at one level, Delphi takes the approach that each levels of one’s education involves the acquisition and demonstration of particular abilities and knowledge. Spending exactly a year at one level may be fine for some children, but not for others. Some students thrive at a faster pace, and some need more time. In fact, most students experience a little bit of both from month to month, depending on the subject manner, their age, or any number of variables.
Students completing the K-6 program at the Santa Monica campus are given priority status for enrolling in Delphi Academy of Los Angeles to continue their program through 12th grade. The Los Angeles campus is located just 25 minutes north from Santa Monica in the equestrian community of Lake View Terrace.
