My name is Richelle Smith and this will be my fifth year as an Instructor at Odyssey Charter School. I couldn't be happier. I am currently attending University of Phoenix where I will receive my Bachelors of Science in Elementary Education. I love learning and teaching and I love to see the wonder and excitement in the children's eyes as they learn and grow every day.

I am also the Odyssey Charter School Drama Club Director. I love the school play and I wait in anticipation each year for the time to come for new auditions. The children of Odyssey Charter School are so talented and this is definitely my favorite time of year.

I was born and raised in Central Utah (Sanpete County). I am married to a wonderful man named Mike who is from right here in American Fork. We have five wonderful children, four boys and one girl, Our 10 year old is Brendon and he is in 5^th grade at Odyssey and our youngest, Dylan will be attending Odyssey’s Kindergarten!

I love to be with my family. We do many things together like swimming, camping, and going to the movies, but I think that just hanging out with friends and extended family for barbeques and fun is our favorite. My other interests include reading, singing and (of course) floral arranging.

I am looking forward to another great year here at Odyssey Charter School.
