Delta Academy
In 1999, Theta Alpha implemented the National Service Project, Delta Academy, which is a national mentoring program for girls aged 11 to 14, with a programmatic focus on Math and Science. This year, the mentors and mentees have become involved in activities such as learning how to use the Internet as a resource, making Power Point presentations, and presenting their projects. In addition to the academic activities, the program emphasizes sisterhood and service. Theta Alpha members along with serving as mentors, develop lasting friendships with the young ladies.
