Congratulations to the Odessa Middle School 6th Grade Teaching Team for being chosen as the May “MAKING A DIFFERENCE” award winning group for the Odessa R-VII School District.
This group continues to raise the bar and push students to be successful day in and day out. They have high and consistent expectations for their students, work well together and want what is best for all students. This group is active both inside and outside the classroom as they are involved with activities and events beyond the school day in extra curricular activities, co-curricular activities, coaching the students and serving as activity sponsors. Thank you to this amazing team:
This group always has a positive attitude and a passion for doing a great job, and they MAKE A DIFFERENCE for everyone they come in contact with everyday.

As part of the requirements of “Get the Lead Out of School Drinking Water Act” (RSMo 160.077) the Odessa R-VII School District is taking the necessary steps to ensure safe drinking water for everyone within the buildings. District personnel identified drinking water outlets throughout the district and utilized the services of Axiom Service Professionals to conduct testing of each outlet. Those results, once received back from the lab, will be made available to the public on the school website.

Remediation Plan
Any samples that resulted in readings greater than the required 5 ppb level will be corrected and retested. Some sinks were not in areas in which there was an expectation of them being drinking water, they have been labeled as such, “not drinking water”. Others, which are areas that will be used for drinking water, are being addressed and will be retested. Further results will be posted here upon their return to the District.
