Believe in Yourself and All That You Are! ๐
Hello Odyssey Students & Families,
Happy May! Let every month be a new beginning! From the deepest part of me, I want to sincerely thank you for allowing us here at Odyssey Online Learning to serve you! YOU are the reason we are dedicated to what we do. Please know we are always here for you.
As we approach the end of the school year, please be sure to look at all of the important and exciting events for the month of May and June!
๐จParents and students, please be reminded that students who fail a course needed for graduation will be required to attend Summer School. It is imperative that we work quickly and efficiently to get back on track to ensure your success at OOL. I have sent an official letter of information to you all for your reference.
๐REQUIRED In-person EOC (End-of-Course) testing will be May 13th through May 26th, 2024. Mrs. Kelly Studebaker (kelly.studebaker@odysseyonline.com) has shared testing locations with all students and parents via email and by mailing a letter to your physical address. Please reach out to her should you have any questions regarding your testing locations.
๐Parents and students, please be sure you are following ALL expectations for coursework and live lesson attendance. As the handbook states, "Students must log in each school day and actively complete assignments in each class to be counted present and to avoid being referred to the Attendance/Truancy Officer. Once your student accrues 10 consecutive unexcused absences, he/she will be withdrawn from the school." These are essential components to ensure YOUR overall success!
Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns. I am only a call, email or text away.
Wishing you all the best,
Mrs. Owings
Executive Director

Mari Hodges
Mari's favorite thing about Odyssey Online Learning is how helpful the teachers are. When he's not completing his schoolwork, he likes working, listening to music, playing sports, and hanging out with family and friends.
"Mari started in January and immediately got to work. He reached out to his SES when he had questions and quickly adjusted to online learning. He consistently monitors his assignments and grades. As a result, he is doing so well at Odyssey. So proud of you, Mari!"
Congratulations, Mari! We are so proud of you!
Danielle Link
Danielle's favorite thing about Odyssey Online Learning is that she can complete her work anywhere while she's traveling. When she's not doing her schoolwork, she loves going to the lake and riding four-wheelers!
"Danielle joined OOL this year and hit the ground running! She will complete this year with 10 credits and also works full time. Danielle is friendly, positive, and an all around joy to be around!"
Congratulations, Danielle! We are so proud of you!
Jayden Schultz
Jayden's favorite thing about Odyssey Online Learning is interacting with the teachers; if you need to talk to them, they always get back as soon as possible. In general, the teachers at Odyssey are amazing! When she's not completing her schoolwork, her hobbies are writing and making music. She also loves poetry and singing, and creative writing will always be her favorite activity when she has free time.
"Jayden is a great writer and has really come out of her shell and become more comfortable sharing her thoughts and opinions in class. She readily accepts leadership roles among her peers. Jayden maintains constant communication with her teachers and stays on top of her work."
Congratulations, Jayden! We are so proud of you!
Ava Smith
Ava's favorite thing about Odyssey Online Learning is how accessible the teachers are, as well as any assistance that she needs. When she's not doing schoolwork, she enjoys learning because there is no limit to learning.
"Ava has a positive attitude in Algebra. She participates in class, submits her work on time, and is doing an amazing job. Way to go, Ava!"
Congratulations, Ava! We are so proud of you!
