Apogee Odessa is a private tutoring and enrichment center, created to support homeschool families in a faith-centered, learner-driven environment. Inspired by the philosophies of Marie Montessori, Socrates, and Waldorf education, we foster a community where children learn both individually and collaboratively.
Our learners engage in core academics, life skills development, and collaborative group projects that encourage teamwork and leadership. We prioritize regular exercise and time spent in nature to support physical health, alongside intentional focus on character and faith development to nurture well-rounded growth.
Because every child is unique, we reject one-size-fits-all approaches. Our environment is designed to flexibly support each learner’s individual journey, creating a true “homeschool away from home” where parents remain the primary educators and we walk alongside as partners in their child’s education and development.
Mastery of Core Curriculum.
There's flexibility for the children to work at a slower or accelerated pace, based on the child's strengths. Learners are not taught to test, they aren't held back when they are excelling, and they aren't forced to move on when they haven't mastered the curriculum. This is the beauty of "child-lead."
No Homework, Ever.
We value family time and want children to leave and build relationships with their families. The nuclear family's value is core to the foundation and identity of children. Family is a pillar of Apogee Odessa and we are here to support YOU.
Life Skills Learned.
Whether it's conflict resolution, gardening, cooking, budgeting, starting a business, changing a tire, and so much more, children leave feeling empowered to become thriving adults.
No Hidden Agenda.
We respect parent's rights and will never cross boundaries. We are clear about our values and will never deviate from them.
Freedom to Move.
Children have energy and we love that about them! Children can bounce on a ball while reading, spin in a chair, read upside down, or whatever their hearts desire. As long as the child is respecting the other learner's environment, they can be kids.
Relationships.
There's an interview process to ensure that the families who join Apogee Odessa are aligned and pushing toward growth. No one is perfect, and no one is exactly the same, but kids should have peers that help them grow and reinforce strong standards.
Guides, not teachers.
Our guides know that the current structure of schools do not work to instill life-long learning. Our guides help ensure children have the resources they need when stuck and lead Socratic discussions.
Education for the Whole Family.
Our partnership with Apogee Strong gives parents access to Apogee Man and Apogee Woman. Apogee Strong is devoted to reclaiming the foundation of a free society by disrupting education for the entire family. You receive access to high performing mentors, monthly challenges, and a thriving community of people who will not settle for just surviving. You get access to this $4,800 value for free in your child's tuition. That's how dedicated we are to your entire family.
