Bugs don't bug Odyssey's campers! 🕷 Students and teachers were buzzing with excitement as we welcomed Craig the Bug Man to campus on the last day of camp. His presentation was truly the bee's knees!

A huge thank you to this group of camp teachers and leaders—our Park Rangers! Thank you for making learning an adventure every single day these past five weeks.

Two water days in one week? Yes, please! 🌊 Our campers sure are making a splash in their final week. Big thanks to our friends at Coppermine in Baltimore for making afternoons so fun!

We may not have Christopher Nolan directing our story, but we do know a thing or two about epic journeys.

Inspired by Homer’s Odyssey, our school’s name reflects the challenging and deeply personal journey each child undertakes on their road to success.

For students with dyslexia, that journey may come with unexpected obstacles. But with the right tools and support, they can find their path forward and defy the odds.

New memories made, new friendships formed, and new skills unlocked. That's summer camp at Odyssey!

Our campers have been enjoying collaborative writing and art projects, hands-on math lessons, 2:1 tutoring sessions, and, of course, outdoor fun in the afternoon.

The good news? There's still one whole week of exploration left! 🌤

We can’t believe it’s already been a month since Odyssey’s Class of 2026 crossed the stage and into their next chapter. We hope our graduates are enjoying a well-deserved summer, and we know they’re ready for whatever comes next. After all, what begins here changes everything 💚
