Press Release Body: Three of Delphi Academy(TM) of Florida\'s most tenured teachers
have been awarded Delphi Educator status by Delphi Schools Incorporated (DSI).
Delphi Educator status is the highest teacher certification an educator can receive
from DSI.

To be considered for Delphi Educator status teachers must complete a comprehensive
training, apprenticing and evaluation program that culminates in professional
certification by DSI, the senior administrative organization which oversees the
Delphi Schools Network, an association of private schools around the country.

The three faculty members that received this recognition were Carol Kirtley, Dean of
Academics, Trish O'Hara, Head of Standards and Mary Float, Assistant to the Dean for
Elementary and Middle Schools. These three veteran teachers have over fifty years of
combined experience educating the children of Clearwater on the Delphi Program. On
receiving her certificate, Ms. Kirtley stated, "I am honored to have earned this
recognition. For my entire professional career I wanted to be a teacher of the
highest order. As a Delphi Educator I have achieved that goal."

The Delphi Faculty Development Program trains faculty in both the administrative and
classroom technology of the Delphi Program, an educational program with a rich
curriculum, over thirty years of experience and the breakthrough educational
methodologies of American author and educator L. Ron Hubbard.

Delphi Educator certification requires of the teacher hundreds of hours training on
more than forty individual administrative and technical courses, including the very
comprehensive Applied Scholastics(TM) Educator\'s Course and Apprenticeship; a number
of curriculum-specific apprenticeships; a series of proficiency reviews and a final
quality check and certification from senior management.

Delphi Academy of Florida is an independent coeducational and non-sectarian day
school offering regular school year and summer programs for preschool through junior
high students. It is licensed to use Applied Scholastics(TM) educational services
