Overview
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.
As a college preparatory school, Magnolia Heights strives to educate the whole student -- academically, morally, physically, and spiritually -- so that each one is challenged to grow and mature in knowledge, wisdom and service.
Student learning is the chief priority of the school. Student learning-needs should be the primary focus of any decision that impacts the work of the school.
Exposure to consistent, strong Christian morals promotes student learning and strengthens individual student morals.
Students need to demonstrate their understanding of essential knowledge and skills, and also be actively involved in solving problems and producing quality work.
Each student is a valued individual with unique physical, social, emotional and intellectual abilities.
The commitment to continuous improvement is imperative if our school is going to enable students to become confident self-directed, life-long learners.
