Odyssey school has been such a blessing for our son. He's found a welcoming and supportive community with wonderful teachers and he loves coming to school. He's proud of his grades and we are so happy with his success at school.

Learning differently is a bigger struggle for some kids than for others; for our son, it was HUGE. From preschool age, he noticed that he wasn't picking up things like reading as easily or readily as his classmates, and it was devastating to his self-concept. After years of struggle, his work with Odyssey has been transformative. It began slowly in sixth grade with incremental progress, but now in tenth grade he is proactive, confident, and engaged. He has taken ownership of his education and earned the respect of his teachers—a shift that would not have been possible without the positive, nurturing, and flexible environment that Odyssey offers to kids who learn differently. When he was struggling in third and fourth grade, I honestly couldn't see a future for him that included college. Today, I see a young man who, sometimes despite his differences & sometimes because of them, can choose college, vocational school, or whatever path is best for him and succeed. Thank you, Odyssey School.

We are so grateful we found the Odyssey School. We feel like it has changed the trajectory of our child's life. Public school was not working, and this is working. Our child is learning, engaged, and loves her classmates and the staff at Odyssey.

Odyssey has been a wonderful fit for our 7th grader. The small class sizes and wonderful staff have allowed our child to have more time to work on improving his skills and master more content in an environment that is able to see his needs and help him take his next steps of educational success.

Odyssey has shepherded our child through the difficult years of middle school. The teachers understand children who are neurodivergent. They do a great job of creating an environment that fosters learning in a supportive way. The school is small, so each child has plenty of access to their teachers. The kids are kind to each other as well. Our child's self confidence has greatly improved in this environment. We are very grateful for this school.
