Mission

At Delhi Unified School District our purpose is to prepare every student to achieve by providing a safe, positive learning environment, adequate resources, and collaborative partnerships resulting in post-secondary readiness and a lifelong passion for learning.

Vision

Delhi Unified School District provides an exceptional learning environment where every student actively prepares for a life long journey in our ever-changing global society

Board of Trustees' Message

Citizen oversight of local government is the cornerstone of democracy in the United States.

Delhi School Board Members are locally elected public officials entrusted with governing our community’s public schools.  While Members are elected individually, authority is granted to the Board as a whole—not to individual members.  Board Members may have differing opinions while discussing an issue, but once a decision is made—the Board speaks with one unified voice.

The Delhi School Board provides direction and oversight for the professionals who manage the day-to-day operations of our schools. We also provide accountability to our community.

The School Board’s Responsibilities are:

  • We set direction;
  • We establish the structure;
  • We provide support;
  • We ensure accountability;
  • We act as community leaders.

The role of the Board is to represent and ensure the district is responsive to the values, beliefs and priorities of our community.  Board members fulfill their responsibilities by working together as a team with the superintendent to make decisions that will best serve all the students in our Delhi community.

Thank you for entrusting us to ensure educational excellence.  Our vision is to provide an exceptional learning environment where every student actively prepares for a life long journey in our ever-changing global society.
