Thank you for your support on Giving Tuesday!

Due to your generosity, we were able to raise $7840 for our school, in addition to the $10,000 match!

The story of Overfield has always been one of deep friendships, strong community ties, and lasting commitment to an education based on relationships. As we celebrate 60 years, we have you to thank for making Overfield the special place that it is: a place that honors childhood, celebrates art and nature, and fosters lifelong learning. Together, we are Overfield; thank you all for your support!

Night Tree 2020

Please join us in walking an illuminated storybook trail featuring Eve Bunting’s beautiful wintertime tale. The children will be busily preparing treats for our local animals, and making art to beautify the trail. We invite you to partake in the beauty of the Climbing Trees–which will be lit up with festive lights and feature some of our past Night Tree creations–and to enjoy an individually packaged holiday treat at the end of the trail.

Due to COVID concerns this event will be an outdoor only event. Each pod has a staggered arrival time; please stay physically distant from other attendees on the trail. See the schedule above for start times.

We hope to see you there!

Winter Weather Procedures

As the snows have begun falling on Overfield hill, we wanted to remind everyone once again of our winter weather procedures. Please be advised that the children will play outside as long as temperatures are 20 degrees or above. In order to enjoy the outdoors they need to come equipped with heavy coats, hats and gloves, as well as snow boots/pants in snowy weather. Also, please make sure that your child’s extra clothes are appropriate for cold weather.

We also wanted to remind everyone to please use caution when driving on the hill to or from school. This is pre-treated when winter weather is anticipated, and plowed and salted as soon as possible. Even when treated the hill can be slippery, so please be aware and take the proper precautions when driving in snow or ice.

Overfield families will be notified via One Call Now by 6:30 a.m. if classes are delayed or cancelled due to inclement weather. Information may also be found by watching or logging on to the local news, WHIO Channel 7. If we delay, it will be a 2 hour delay; in this case, Toddlers and Before Care will be closed. School will open at 10:30am. and morning classes will still dismiss at noon, as usual.

We encourage you to use your own discretion when needed. Your safety is always first priority. Bundle up and stay warm, everyone!
