The Odyssey School model for integral education is built on six strands of human development:
- • The aesthetic strand
nourishes a continuous program from preschool through high school
that cultivates the imagination and develops aesthetic literacy..
- • The emotional strand
assists the child in understanding and communicating in the
world of feelings.
- • The mental strand
attends to the skills and knowledge that are useful to the student
as a lifelong learner.
- • The moral/social strand
supports ecological thinking about the connections between all
creation.
- • The physical strand
nurtures the development and the care and respect of the physical
body—as well as attends to the biology of learning.
- • The spiritual strand
supports the child's recognition and communication of his or
her own truth, the ability to live from the heart, and the exercising
of her or his faculty of creative imagination.
The inclusion of each of these strands supports
a balanced, comprehensive, interconnected, and whole relationship
to ourselves and our world. Click below for a more in-depth look
at the specifics offered for students from pre-school to the 8th
Grade.
