About Our School

Odyssey Charter Schools offer a unique alternative for students with specific interests or requirements that preclude enrollment in traditional schools in Nevada. Charter schools provide a stimulating educational experience for these exceptional students. Our student body comprises students who travel often, those whose sport or theater practice requirements demand a more flexible schedule, and students with special learning needs.

Odyssey provides outstanding education to children in Las Vegas. We are a state-funded, publicly accredited institution sponsored by the State Public Charter School Authority (SPCSA). Odyssey Charter Schools do not charge tuition fees.

Our Approach: The hybrid approach at Odyssey Charter Schools involves several core components:

At the elementary school, Odyssey students and their families meet with a state-licensed teacher each week in various formats. All middle school students meet with licensed subject teachers for three hours once each week on campus, thereby preparing them for the similar scheduling requirements of our high school program. Odyssey’s high school students come together once a week for a three-hour block of classroom sessions. This is more than just a lecture – it also entails personalized instruction and mentorship.

We take pride in our ability to meet the diverse needs of our students across all of Odyssey’s programs here in Las Vegas. School ratings and reviews from parents and students are consistently positive because it’s our philosophy that the educational approach should be tailored to the student, not the other way around. Parents play a significant role in ensuring student success, and a parent or guardian must be in the home with the student to monitor and record time on task and academic progress.

Our student-centered approach requires our young people to take a more active role in their education. They must be self-starting, motivated learners. Parents play a significant role in ensuring student success, so we provide them with a wealth of resources and tools.

Special Education
We are fully compliant with state special education laws and the associated graduation requirements. We’re staffed with a full team of highly qualified facilitators and paraprofessionals who partner with parents and students to create Individualized Education Plans (IEPs) for each student. Special education staff play a significant role in our classrooms, ensuring time on task and clarification of expectations. Families are an integral and valued part of every IEP.
