While our Cultural Night was a team effort, we want to give a special "paws up" to our incredible EL teacher, Lynn Lagermann.
Mrs. Lagermann didn’t just coordinate the logistics of this massive event; she pours her heart into our multilingual students every single day, ensuring they feel seen, supported, and celebrated. Her dedication is the bridge that connects so many of our families to the heart of Overdale.
Mustang Fact: Mrs. Lagermann helps support students from 15 different countries daily!

Our Literacy and Cultural Night was a beautiful reminder of what makes our Mustang family so strong.
From teachers leading global crafts to parents sharing their favorite native dishes like conchas and con gris, it was a true community effort! Whether you were riding the Hillview Express or exploring a new book together, the energy was all about connection.
We love seeing our students, staff, and families come together to celebrate the cultures that enrich our school every single day.
Mustang Fact: This community-wide event was fully funded by Title I to support our families! #MustangFamily #BetterTogether #OESCommunity #CulturalCelebration #StrongerTogether
At Overdale, our hallways represent the entire globe!
We are so proud to be home to over 70 multilingual learners representing 15 different countries. Our Mustang family spans 5 continents and speaks 8 different languages, proving that while we may come from different corners of the map, we all run together as one pack.
Mustang Fact: Approximately 1/5 of our student body is a multilingual learner!

Our Literacy and Cultural Night turned every classroom into a new destination!
From crafting delicate paper lanterns inspired by Tikki Tikki Tembo in 3rd Grade to creating vibrant papel picado for Mexico in Kindergarten, our Mustangs combined reading with hands-on heritage. It was a night of exploring new worlds through books and bringing those stories to life through art.
Mustang Fact: Every student went home with FREE books to keep their personal libraries growing!
