DCS Montessori OM World Finals P1D2 and P2D2 teams

Our talented teams of young innovators from DCS Montessori Charter School in Castle Pines, CO has achieved something truly remarkable: they have earned a coveted spot to compete in the Odyssey of the Mind World Finals!

Odyssey of the Mind (OM) is an international creative problem-solving competition that challenges students to think outside the box and develop innovative solutions to complex problems, ranging from building mechanical devices to presenting theatrical performances. Our students have dedicated countless hours to collaborate, brainstorm, and hone their skills, demonstrating incredible teamwork, creativity, and perseverance.

Their journey to the World Finals, taking place May 23rd-27th in East Lansing, Michigan (Michigan State University), is a testament to their hard work and dedication. However, this incredible opportunity comes with significant travel and accommodation costs. As volunteer and student organizations, DCS Montessori OM teams rely on the generosity of our community to provide enriching experiences like this for our students.

By becoming a donor, you will directly contribute to these bright young minds' journey to the world stage. Your support will help cover essential expenses such as:

Transportation to and from the World Finals

Accommodation for the team and chaperones

Registration and other fees for the competition

We believe that investing in these students is an investment in the future. Their participation in Odyssey of the Mind fosters critical thinking, collaboration, and creativity – skills that are essential for success in any field. Your support will not only help them reach the World Finals but will also empower them to become innovative leaders and problem-solvers of tomorrow.
