"Integral learning is a life-long adventure
that ignites and supports the awakening of the individual, society,
and the greater field of life. It is a love affair with life and
living. It is passionate awakening, and embraces the largeness of
one's true self while holding a deep appreciation for the truth
and life-fulfilling gifts of others. Odyssey is a community dedicated
to integral learning."
—Dr. John Johnson, Founder & Executive Director of Odyssey
Odyssey Community School
At Odyssey, we believe in education that promotes learning as
a life-long journey of fulfillment. We are rooted in the Integral
approach that nurtures a balanced, comprehensive, interconnected,
and whole relationship to ourselves and our world. In multi-age
classrooms, our students explore the world within the context
of six strands of development (aesthetic, emotional mental, moral/social,
physical, and spiritual). From this vantage point, Odyssey students
awaken to more inclusive aspects of reality and humanity. We strive
to inspire our children to seek enlightenment and fulfillment
in all that they do. In our relationships at Odyssey, we embrace
the principles of positive discipline and compassionate communication
as core elements of learning, creativity, true understanding,
and joy.
The Odyssey Vision —
An Integral Community
The Odyssey Community offers an environment that nurtures personal
and collective fulfillment from preschool through retirement.
Our adult learning community offers recreation, wellness and fitness,
spiritual awakening, and service.
Our unique campus offers exciting opportunities during summer
months with camp programs for students, cook-outs, and swimming
and tennis for Odyssey members.
Starting in the 2008-2009 academic year, Odyssey will be adding
secondary education, one grade level each consecutive year.
Odyssey: A Community of Integral Learning, Inc. is a nonprofit institution that does not discriminate in admissions or hiring practices. We welcome students and staff of any race, creed, ethnic origin, or lifestyle.
