Delteia 2015,” the 87^th Junior High School - High School Track & Field Competitions, took place on Tuesday, March 2015.  With its own distinct tone, the student percussion band declared the start of the ceremonial opening.  Psychico College’s Student Community President reminded us of the “Promise” that students gave before beginning the Delteia games.

During the ceremonial opening, all of the “A” Association members and students who entered the finals paraded in front of the audience.  Leading the parade was the Hellenic Police Band which honors us with its presence each year.

Following the flag-raising, national anthem and wreath-laying in memory of Stefanos Delta, father of the College, Ms. Annika Papantoniou, General Secretary of the Hellenic-American Educational Foundation’s Board of Directors, declared the opening of the games.

The Delteia games took place in the presence of the entire Junior High and High School student bodies as well as parents and friends of the College who enjoyed watching the class competitions to determine the highest overall score.  Among male students, Nikolaos Embeoglou achieved the best result in the 400m Dash (49”07) scoring 918 points and among females, Emmanouela-Sevasti Karyampa in the 100m Sprint (12”88) with 825 points.
