Academic and Enrichment Programs

Teaming

The students at Overlook Middle School are divided into six interdisciplinary teaching teams.  These teams have approximately 100 students who share the same math, science, social studies and English teachers.  Team teachers organize the teams' activities, share information about students, and generally assist the team in running smoothly.

Enrichment Classes

In addition to studying math, science, social studies, and English, students at Overlook take enrichment classes.  Enrichments meet five times each week for four weeks.  The class periods are 80 minutes.
