Welcome to Iota Phi                                    

MISSION STATEMENT: The Delta Kappa Gamma Society International promotes professional and personal growth of women educators and excellence in education.

Iota Phi is the Moorpark Chapter of Delta Kappa Gamma Society International located in Moorpark, California. We are approximately 60 miles northeast of Los Angeles and in Ventura County.

Our history began on February 15, 1995. We began with 12 chartered members and today seven of our originals are still with us. During 2010 - 2011 we initiated 12 new members, 2 former members were reinstated, we added 3 transfered members, and a reserve member joined us... and that brought our membership to 52. However, we were sad to loose our first member through death on June 17, 2011. Please read about our sister, Linda Anderson in her memorial on our DKG "Special" Events and News Articles link as well as our "smilebox" memorial to her.

Iota Phi holds true to our DKG purposes and believe in challenging our members. As you read our newsletters and take a "bird's eye" view of our meetings through our Smileboxes (see link section) you will see how exciting and motivating our meetings are. We invite you back each month for an update to what we are doing.
