We are thrilled to be welcoming Omope Carter Daboiku–affectionately known as Mama O–as a visiting artist the week of October 23rd! Many thanks to the Ohio Arts Council and Muse Machine for helping to provide this opportunity, where the children will get to immerse themselves in the world of storytelling. We can’t wait to use this medium to explore cultural history and family stories, all through the language of food and gardening! If you’d like a sneak peek of Mama O’s storytelling, she will be at Young’s Dairy Spooky Barn this Friday and Saturday at 7:30 pm–if you visit, make sure you tell her you’re from Overfield and we can’t wait to welcome her to our school!

Autumn at Overfield is fast approaching! This fun-filled day will take place Saturday, October 21st from 4-8 p.m. We need your help to make this day a success!
