Odyssey of the Mind is an international educational program that provides creative problem solving opportunities for students. Lees Corner is happy to offer the opportunity for students to be placed on a team. Team members apply their creativity to solve problems that range from building mechanical devices to presenting their own interpretation of literary classics. Students from kindergarten through sixth grade may participate. The regional tournament will be held on Saturday, February 21, 2026. Go here for the problem synopses for this season. To learn more about Odyssey of the Mind, visit https://www.odysseyofthemind.com/ or contact Jennifer Wagner at jjwagner@fcps.edu. Register your child here to be placed on a school team. Please consider volunteering to be a coach, as we can only have as many teams as we have coaches for. Each participating team may have up to 7 children. The registration deadline is November 15, 2025.

We request that all costumes are school-appropriate and do not involve masks or weapons of any type. Please bring the associated book or picture of the book to share.
