Spring Open House Day, May 19, 2022 at 9:45 a.m.
Come See What Overlee Is All About!
For nearly 80 years, Overlee has offered children a stimulating and intentional environment that teaches them to respect the feelings, ideas, and rights of themselves and others. In 2020, we enhanced our program by moving outdoors. Our children are thriving as they play, learn and explore in nature! Want to learn more? Come visit on May 19th, when we will open our doors to prospective families, to observe circle time and perhaps follow our children’s footsteps through the woods. We look forward to meeting you!

A Parent Cooperative Pre-School
Established in 1945, Overlee seeks to provide a stimulating and happy environment that will help children learn to respect themselves; to respect the feelings, ideas, and rights of others; to make choices, resolve conflicts, and solve problems; and to explore new ways of doing things – with the belief that this will help each child develop as a confident, whole individual. The school respects each child as a unique individual and has planned a program that helps every member of the class develop at his/her own rate – socially, emotionally, physically, and intellectually.
Parent Participation
Play-Based Learning
Outdoors
Children have an innate connection to nature. Being outside supports the open-ended, self-directed play that is critical for their physical and mental development.

Overlee’s Response to COVID-19
In 2020, we made several adjustments to our normal procedures to keep our staff and children safe during the COVID-19 pandemic. These adjustments have continued to evolve. Currently, our classes are held entirely outdoors and make full use of our fantastic playground, surrounding woods, and other outdoor areas to provide our children a safe place to learn and play. Masks are optional outside, but required for any indoor time on inclement weather days. All staff and parents are required to be vaccinated.
Overlee Preschool is currently accepting applications. Learn more and apply online in our Admissions Section.
