Welcome to Odyssey Charter School- Florida's first High Performance School.

Our goal is to create safe and caring learning environments where we teach students positive and appropriate ways to resolve conflicts. Our positive discipline approach allows classroom communities to grow together in the development of problem-solving skills and mutual respect. We are preparing our students with a strong foundation for future leadership in the larger world community. We know that kindness, courtesy and respect toward all will be at the core of our staff, teachers, and students.

Our program is designed to foster individual uniqueness and potential. We treat each student as an individual and know that no two students will learn at the same pace, nor will they learn best from the same teaching methods. Our students also learn not to be afraid of mistakes. Elementary students are encouraged to do their own research, analyze what they have found, and come to their own conclusions. In this way, we are helping students to become life-long independent learners.

Odyssey's mission is to help each student reach their full potential working in partnership with you, our Odyssey families. Your child must have your full support at home and at school. To be admitted to Odyssey, each family commits to a minimum of 18 volunteer hours each school year (25 for 2 or more students attending). Our students count on your partnership and support.

On behalf of Odyssey's staff and teachers, we welcome you to this cooperative school serving and educating leaders.

Sincerely,
Constance Ortiz
