Help Send Upper St. Clair Odyssey of the Mind Teams to World Finals!
We’re thrilled to share that four Upper St. Clair Odyssey of the Mind teams have qualified to compete at the World Finals at Michigan State University this May—an incredibly rare and exciting achievement for our district!
Odyssey of the Mind is an international creative problem-solving competition that challenges students to think innovatively, work collaboratively, and bring imaginative ideas to life. After months of dedication, teamwork, and out-of-the-box thinking, these students have earned the chance to showcase their talents on a global stage.
Why do we need your support?
USC Odyssey of the Mind is a fully parent-run program, supported primarily through our summer Ingenuity Camp and other small fundraisers throughout the year. This community-driven model keeps the program thriving and accessible, but traveling to World Finals brings significant additional expenses.
Your donation will help us cover:
- Travel expenses
- Lodging
- Registration Costs
- Financial support to ensure no student misses out
We are so proud of our teams and the creativity, teamwork, and perseverance they’ve shown. With your help, they can bring their ideas—and their hard work—to the world stage.
Thank you for supporting the Upper St. Clair Odyssey of the Mind program!
