WHAT IS OUTSIDE ASSISTANCE?
Odyssey believes that students learn best and develop a stronger sense of pride and accomplishment when they complete tasks on their own. For these reasons, all solutions are expected to be generated and accomplished by the team alone and there are strict rules against “outside assistance.” Please use this guide to help understand what is considered to be outside assistance.
