Power is restored on campus

The power is back at Overlake and campus will open at 3:00 p.m. We are in the process of getting the buildings back online with heat and will be ready for the evening performance of Annie Jr. in Fulton Performing Arts Center, and for Robotics Sunday in the gym. This afternoon the US basketball teams and cast of Annie Jr. will be on campus practicing and rehearsing beginning at 3:00 p.m. Arts faculty and athletics coaches will reach out directly to the cast/crew/teams with details. We look forward to seeing many of you at Annie Jr. tonight and everyone back in classes Monday. Thank you for your partnership and community during this uncertain time.

Taylor Swift Escape Room

Collage of students in the "escape room"

Over the last couple of weeks, thirty+ middle schoolers puzzled their way through a Taylor Swift escape room at lunchtime. The escape room included six boxes to unlock, with two word locks, two number locks, a color lock and a key lock. Swifties had to demonstrate their knowledge of Swift’s lyrics, albums, song titles, and more. Their ultimate goal to “escape” was to complete the “Lover House” with icons related to all of Swift’s eras. Everyone managed it, and earned some cookies and some Swiftie cred!

Many thanks to Erica Testani of the Lewis Egerton Smoot Memorial Library in Virginia, who created the escape room and generously shared it with us.
