Delphi Santa Monica Stresses Importance of STEAM Education in a Changing World

    SANTA MONICA, CA, September 12, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- STEAM is short for Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics. The idea behind STEAM is that all of these areas of study are important for creating a well-rounded and flexible education--especially in an ever-changing world where what students learn today could quite possibly be obsolete by the time they actually enter the real world.

"STEAM programs aim to not only educate, but prepare students for anything that lies ahead," says Delphi Academy's Head of School, Ellen Garrison.

She goes on to say that STEAM combined with the educational tools students learn at Delphi Academy of Santa Monica, and over 300 courses covering the full spectrum of academic subjects designed to work in conjunction with the study and teaching methods used within the program, will prepare children for life beyond school because they learn tools that effectively teach them how to learn and achieve a rigorous mastery of the basics.

Not only are they confident their program works, but Ms. Garrison says, "Students who have attended Delphi Santa Monica go on to such schools as The Mirman School, The Buckley School, Crossroads, New Roads and Turning Point. From secondary school, Delphi alumni go on to attend a large list of outstanding colleges and universities, with many receiving partial or full scholarships to the school of their choice."

A map of the particular curriculum at each academic level is available through the Admissions Office.

Delphi Academy of Santa Monica is an accredited, independent day school with over 30 years of educational experience and part of a national network of acclaimed schools with locations in Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, No. California, Florida and Oregon. We enroll students from the age of 3 years to 5th Grade. To find out more, visit http://delphisantamonica.org/.
