Overlea has gave me everything I have ever asked for my time at Overlea was great we didn't have a lot of resources but the administration and the faculty made sure we were prepared in the right way. I played football and ran track we were very great team in both sports and they made sure we were ready and prepared for college and after giving us life skills and teaching us how we can be successful outside of sports

Overlea high school is a very diverse school. It's in the Rosedale area, filled with helpful teachers and administrators. I would like to see a change in the behavior of the students at Overlea high school. I believe the leaders at this school are capable of helping to make that happen.
