Self Advocates

Another way scholars exhibit character is by solving their own problems.  There is an Odyssey way to deal with conflict:  By facing it.  All of our team members: parents, teachers, and scholars are asked to own their own problems.  Differences of opinion happen.  And some conflict is healthy.  However, whether it is a disagreement about a lesson plan between two teachers, a disagreement about a homework assignment between a teacher and a scholar, or a disagreement about the lunch menu and the front office staff, we require that all team members become self-advocates, treat one another with respect, and most of all solve the problem with those it involves.
