At Odyssey
Day School we believe all children need and deserve a safe, nurturing
and stimulating educational environment where developmental needs,
personal interests and talents, and individual learning styles
are addressed. Our small classes, high ratio of teachers to students,
flexible student groupings and differentiated approach to curriculum
planning, provide the personalized attention children need in
order to experience success and develop a joy for learning. Together,
the members of the school community embark on an educational
odyssey which sets the stage for children to become independent
thinkers able to meet intellectual challenges with curiosity
and confidence. The dynamic, theme-based integrated curriculum
is the basis of a highly motivating and challenging educational
program that includes a strong academic foundation complemented
by experiences in the arts, technology and athletics. We promote
a strong sense of community to help children learn to be responsible
for themselves and respectful of others. Diversity within our
school community is appreciated, as it enriches all members of
the community. Because it is crucial to the successful school
experience, open communication between families, staff and students
is valued and encouraged.
It is the policy
of Odyssey Day School to maintain a school environment that is
free from discrimination and to conduct its educational practices,
admissions program, financial aid policies, hiring practices,
and other school-administered programs solely on the basis of
an individual’s merit, qualifications, and abilities. Odyssey
Day School does not discriminate on the basis of race, color,
national or ethnic origin, religion or creed, sexual orientation,
age, gender, or disability.
