A reminder that Friday, March 5 will be a teacher workday.

The Odyssey School admission lottery for the 2010-2011 school year was held on February 1 at the school. The lottery included all applicants who submitted completed paperwork by 5:00 pm that afternoon. At this point, most classes have short wait lists. If you are interested in admission for the next school year, you are invited to complete the required application materials and submit them to the school as soon as possible. Applications are available by clicking on the School Info button and then the Enrollment link. Please contact the Odyssey School office with any questions.

It is Odyssey School’s policy to close when the Coweta County School System closes due to weather emergencies. If school systems are forced to close due to snow, ice, hurricanes, floods, etc., tune into a local or metro Atlanta news outlet. If the announcement is made that Coweta County Schools are closed, then it is safe to assume that Odyssey School is also closed.If possible, a parent e-mail will be sent out and the web site updated.

Thanks to everyone who participated and/or volunteered during our Barnes and Noble fundraiser. I am pleased to report that the school library will receive credit for at least $1,282 worth of books from Barnes and Noble.

A special thanks to Maria Hickman, the parent who organized this event for Odyssey.
