William C. Overfelt High School Welcome Packet 2024-2025Top of Page
Overfelt Families,
This year school will start on Thursday, August 8, 2024. This is an important year for our students as they prepare for a future of success. Our students will need to be in class on time everyday with their electronic devices put away so that they can learn what they need to know to be ready for college and careers when they graduate. We will all work together with your student to help them earn grades of “C” or better in all of their
classes. Please take time to review this important information with your student.
