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 Learning Model

Odyssey combines 24/7 online coursework via Moodle with mandatory, weekly on-campus instruction to build strong habits and ensure academic success across all grade levels:

• Elementary School (K–5): Students complete daily online lessons with parent guidance and attend a mandatory 3-hour, small-group session on campus once per week with a licensed teacher.

• Middle School (Grades 6–8): Students attend campus once per week for a mandatory 3-hour instructional session in core subjects, with opportunities for 8th-grade high school credits and Learning Lab support.

• High School (Grades 9–12): Students attend campus once per week for a 3-hour block focused on direct instruction, mentorship, and coursework support, with drop-in tutoring available daily at the Student Learning Center.

Parent & Student Partnership

Because hybrid learning requires discipline and self-motivation, student success at Odyssey relies on an active partnership between home and school:

• Student Ownership: Students must be self-motivated learners who log into Moodle daily and maintain steady progress.

• Parent Involvement: Parents play an essential role at home by monitoring daily time on task and verifying academic progress, particularly in the foundational elementary years.

• Teacher Mentorship: Our licensed faculty provides ongoing virtual support, office hours, and individualized guidance during weekly campus visits.

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.
