Dear Odin Families,
This evening, Odin Public Schools was made aware of a law enforcement situation involving an individual reportedly in possession of a firearm near the fire station.
Law enforcement was called and promptly deescalated the situation. We are thankful for their prompt and professional response and for their continued efforts to keep our community safe.
While the incident did not take place on school property, Odin Public Schools takes any potential safety concern seriously. As always, we will continue to cooperate fully with law enforcement and remain committed to the safety and well-being of our students, staff, and families. As always if you have any questions, please call the school or email me directly.
Thank you,
Quinton Marcum

We are so proud of Abbi Haines for showing Adaptability. She was nominated by Mrs. Morris for showing adaptability in the classroom by using her resources and working independently. She uses time wisely and works hard through independent work time. Regardless of the difficulty of the task, she continues to ADAPT and figure out how to solve problems all on her own. Her independence and work ethic are inspiring to those around her and we are so proud of her!
