Odyssey of the Mind

 Odyssey of the Mind is an international educational program that provides creative problem-solving opportunities for students from kindergarten through college. Team members apply their creativity to solve problems that range from building mechanical devices to presenting their own interpretation of literary classics. They then bring their solutions to competition on the local, state, and World level. Thousands of teams from throughout the U.S. and from about 25 other countries participate in the program.
 
Our Bethlehem Odyssey team is in its' third year. Tryouts are held in the fall for third-fifth grade students, and seven team members are selected. This year's team will compete on Saturday, March 17th at the regional competition at Parkview High School. Wish us luck as we compete!
