Summary

Odyssey Charter School is an elementary public charter school located in American Fork, Utah, serving grades K-6 with a total enrollment of 410 students. The school is part of the Odyssey Charter School District, which is ranked 43 out of 93 districts in Utah and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Odyssey Charter School has shown a mixed academic performance compared to the state and nearby schools. In recent years, the school's proficiency rates in RISE assessments have been both above and below the state averages. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 5th-grade Math proficiency rate was 57.4%, higher than the state average of 44.4%, but the 6th-grade Math proficiency rate was only 23.8%, significantly lower than the state average of 36.4%. Compared to nearby schools like Manila School and Shelley School, Odyssey Charter School's academic performance is generally in the middle range.

Another area of concern for Odyssey Charter School is its high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 23.8% to 37.6% in recent years, significantly higher than the state average and the rates of nearby schools. The school's lower per-student spending of $6,206 in 2018-2019 and higher student-teacher ratio of 19.8 in 2023-2024 compared to some nearby schools may also be contributing factors to its inconsistent academic performance. By addressing these areas, the school can work to improve its academic outcomes and provide a more consistent and supportive learning environment for its students.

What people are saying

by a parent
Saturday, August 23, 2014

I am both a parent and teacher at Odyssey Charter School. All four of my children have attended or are currently attending Odyssey. I am very pleased with the education they have received. The curriculum is well laid out and builds from one year to the next to give them a well rounded knowledge base. I love the Music and Latin programs because they are so well taught and enhance the education my children receive. Because I also work at the school, I see first hand how dedicated the teachers are to providing the best possible education and learning environment for my kids. They work long hours to make sure everything is just right. They also keep me informed about what is going on in the classroom, what is coming up so I can help my kids be prepared, and any individual concerns and accolades regarding my kids. My favorite thing about Odyssey is the positive atmosphere within the school. The current administration is so supportive and the staff really work together and collaborate to make things run smoothly. Close Quote
