Important Campus Update
Important Campus Update
Odyssey Charter Schools, a cornerstone of innovation and academic excellence for 25 years, has been deeply impacted by the Eaton Fire in Altadena. On January 8th, our OCS-South Campus, home to 375 students, was tragically destroyed, leaving our community in urgent need. We now face the monumental challenge of rebuilding and ask for your support during this critical time.
Donate to help us reopen our campuses, share our campaign to spread the word, or contact us to get involved in other ways. Every contribution makes a difference.
