Welcome to Odom Elementary
A wall-to-wall Dual Language campus where bilingualism, cultural diversity and inclusivity are at the heart of everything we do.
A message from the 2026-27 principal
Dear Odom families and community,
Welcome to our Dual Language campus, where bilingualism, cultural diversity and inclusivity shape both our instruction and the culture we build each day for our students.
While this past season of consolidation has brought challenges, I am truly honored and excited to serve as the principal of Odom and to lead our Dual Language program into this next chapter.
My background is rooted in supporting diverse learners, fostering biliteracy and creating safe and brave spaces where students feel seen, valued and empowered.
We are committed to ensuring that every child grows as a confident, self-aware individual while achieving academic success in both languages.
I look forward to building strong relationships with our families through community events, conversations and shared experiences throughout the year.

Estimadas familias y comunidad de Odom,
Bienvenidos a nuestra escuela de Doble Lenguaje, donde el bilingüismo, la diversidad cultural y la inclusión son la base de todo lo que hacemos.

Estamos comprometidos en asegurar que cada estudiante crezca como una persona segura de sí misma y exitosa académicamente en ambos idiomas.
Juntos, continuaremos creando un entorno donde todos los estudiantes puedan prosperar.
