District-Level NCES Analysis
Odyssey Charter School operates 1 public schools serving 2,123 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Delaware.

The district's equity score is 26/100, ranked #32 of 40 in Delaware against a state average of 39, notably less even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.

Odyssey Charter School accounts for 100.0% of all Odyssey Charter School student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Odyssey Charter School a distant remainder — means Odyssey Charter School-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: combined. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Odyssey Charter School student-counselor ratio is 572:1 — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Values this far above typical often signal acute resource constraints or a structurally different scale than most peers — worth reading alongside the underlying counts, not the ratio alone.
Odyssey Charter School chronic absenteeism rate is 12.8% — low (typically associated with lower-than-average attendance disruption; districts in this range often have attendance interventions, robust transportation, or smaller catchments that reduce barriers)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Lower values often correlate with smaller scale and population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se.
Odyssey Charter School has 1 school, including 1 combined. Total enrollment is 2,123 students.
