Study Technology provides simple but powerful tools by which any subject can be understood, and Delphi students get a firm grounding in it. Forms versus Grades Rather than place or advance a student based on age or number of months spent at one level, we take the approach that each level of one's education involves acquisition and demonstration of particular abilities and knowledge. We refer to each level as a Form, and the abilities and knowledge the student acquires at each Form are mapped out in explicit graduation requirements. Forms provide specific goals and an individualized road. Delphi students have their own program which guides them through each Form.
Students can enroll in a Form at any time during the school year.
This structure makes it possible for a student to move on to a higher Form, regardless of age, once all the graduation requirements for the previous Form have been met. In this way, each student advances as rapidly as he or she is learning and demonstrating competence. Individual Programs Students are not all the same, and don't all start at Delphi on the same footing. Each arriving student is given diagnostic testing from which a program based on interests, strengths and weaknesses is designed. The student can then embark on a full academic program.
