We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

My overall experience in Odyssey Charter as a senior who has been here for 5 years is that the school is mediocre. We have a change of staff every year due to management. Some teachers are nice and homey whereas others are stressed and take it out on the students.

This is a small school that is always growing and has excellent opportunities for students to shine. I only wish it had a stronger sport and performing arts programs.

Teachers are wonderful, Odyssey feels like a private school decent atmosphere. Teachers here do their best to help the students, reaching out to parents on missing assignments. It's a human institution so you don't expect everything to be excellent yet they do their best.
