Meet the Teacher

Greetings. My name is Mr. Overman and I am excited to teach sixth grade at Jefferson Elementary School. I have also taught 3rd grade and 2nd grade. My journey has been amazing. I have worked in camping ministry, student ministry, and children's ministry. I am also the Jefferson soccer coach.
I am married to my incredible wife, Christi. We have two children, Ian and Brenna, and we live in beautiful Winona Lake. As a family, we enjoy being outside, riding mountain bike trails, and playing all kinds of different games. We have two amazing dogs, Silas and Shelby.
In my free time, I enjoy woodworking, gadgets, engineering, and most importantly, Star Wars. I look forward to meeting you and working together to help everyone learn, grow, and give back.
-Mr. O

LEARN - GROW - GIVE BACK

There are three pieces to the learning philosophy of our classroom: Learn, Grow, and Give Back.
LEARN- Everyone has the ability to learn and acquire new knowledge.
GROW- When we grow we go beyond knowledge and allow the things we are learning to change and shape us into the person we are supposed to be.
GIVE BACK- This is all about the application and sharing of our knowledge. We should always be looking for ways to share and help those around us.
