Harmony welcomes students back to school; implements early-release Fridays

Harmony Science Academy-Odessa welcomed students back Monday for the 2023-24 school year.

Harmony will be implementing early-release Fridays this school year. All staff members will be able to leave Friday afternoon as soon as students are dismissed, at roughly 1 p.m.

“This initiative was implemented to give teachers and staff more time for themselves and their family,” said Harmony Public Schools West Texas District Area Superintendent, Dr. Kamil Yilmaz.

Harmony remains committed to helping students attain their highest academic potential, by providing a curriculum that offers students hands-on learning, and the opportunity to master challenging academic concepts and advanced problem-solving skills that will benefit them throughout their life.

Harmony Science Academy-Odessa is a tuition-free, open enrollment public charter school that provides high-quality education with a focus on Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) for students in kindergarten through eighth grade.
