This school was terrible. They took what my son had accomplished in the previous year (special needs) and essentially took him back to the beginning. He is much worse off from having gone there, I should have kept him in his original school. I would not reccomend this school to anyone with special needs kids.

Attending Overlake has been a good experience for my children. Teachers have challenged them, given opportunities for growth, and have promptly attended to any concerns that have arisen. I have appreciated their flexibility and genuine concern for students.

I can't say enough great things about this school, every single teacher I have interacted with has been so sweet and kind. I volunteer weekly and get to interact and see how they are with their classroom and every single time I'm amazed on how they control the room and how the kids love and respect them. You can really tell the teachers care about their jobs and the kids in the school. The Russian program is mind blowing, If I could give them 100 stars I would, I can't even comprehend having to teach 25 kids in a day, let alone having to teach 50 kids total from rotating classes. I highly recommend this school. They TRULY care about your children!
