Overdale Teacher of the Year 2026-2027 is Lynn Lagermann!
Lynn Lagermann is the ultimate heart of OES. Her dedication to every student in our building is unmatched. Her willingness to jump in, whether it's co-teaching, finding differentiation resources, or rolling up her sleeves to clean up after an event, shows just how much she cares. She doesn't just teach. She lifts everyone up around her. She is a one of a kind blessing to our school family, and she is beyond worthy of teacher of the year.

Happy Veterans Day! We are so thankful for all of our Veterans! Thank you to all that helped with the Veterans Day Program this morning!
📚 **Building Effective Communicators in 5th Grade!**
Mrs. Schwartz’s 5th Grade class has been diving into the powerful book *Refugee* by Alan Gratz. As we read, students are exploring the characters, events, and historical connections while thinking about how one event can lead to another.
Students are practicing how to effective communicators while explaining cause and effect and supporting their ideas with accurate evidence from the text. They are learning to dig deeper, make meaningful connections, and use evidence to explain their reasoning.
We love seeing our Mustangs grow as readers, critical thinkers, and effective communicators! 📖✨
