Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty. Odom was due in court in June, but his next appearance was pushed back to August.
In May, Daniels' students raised $6,400 for a garden at the school in her memory. The garden will feature benches, a mosaic and a reflection pond.
The case gripped the community for weeks before police could make an arrest.
