All I have to say is I truly pray for any current and incoming students. Everyday might feel harder than the next but everything will get better. If you feel like a student thats disrespected and overlooked please push through do your work and try to graduate because the struggles of Overlea won't ever define you as a person. And neither will the teachers.

Overlea high-school is a school I would maybe recommend because there are better schools that it. Overlea I loved the memories I made there.

My experience at Overlea High School so far is really good. The best part of my experience is probably watching performances at the honor roll assembly. I don't really have any bad experiences but some I would like to see some changes with the number of people per class.
