Odyssey Of The Mind!

8/21/2024 8:02 am

Hey Clermont!

Do you like to write?
Do you like to sing?
Do you like to create things out of cardboard?
Do you play an instrument?
Do you like collaborating with friends?

Are you ready for an AMAZING creative adventure?

Odyssey of the Mind is a one-of-a-kind creative problem-solving program for K-12 students sponsored by the Clermont PTA. From October to March, teams work to solve a long-term problem, then present their solutions at a regional competition. OM also emphasizes teamwork, budgeting, time management, public speaking, and so much more. Each team develops their own unique solution and do ALL the work themselves, encouraged by parent coaches. There is a weekly commitment on a day and time that the team agrees upon. You’ll find more information at: www.odysseyofthemind.com.

Confused: Still confused what OOTM is? Check out last year’s Clermont award-winning team here:

Next steps: We will form teams within the next few weeks. New to Odyssey and ready to dive in? Returning OMer? The deadline to register is Friday, September 20th.

Please note that the number of teams we are able to assemble is entirely dependent upon having enough parents willing to coach.

Interested? Please join us at an informational Zoom meeting Tuesday, September 17 at 6:00pm. Any questions, please contact Jennifer Jones, the Clermont OOTM Coordinator at: ClermontOOTM@gmail.com
