Arlington High School is a fabulous school with tremendous opportunities for both academic and athletic success. They have copious amounts of student engagement and clubs to join, and everyone fits in somewhere. You have to be proactive in finding these opportunities, though, in order to cultivate personal success. The school's large population doesn't really encourage hand holding, so it's important that your child is speaking up and being their own advocate when it comes to their academics and extracurriculars. They have so many AP courses that really helped me jumpstart my college career and graduate in 3.5 years instead of 4. As a proud alumni, my experiences at Arlington were a major factor in my successful post-college career.

Overlook School continue to impress me. My son had Mrs.Pakrad for Kindergarten and she was an absolute gem! Such a thoughtful and caring teacher who truly took time to understand each child and taught them in a way that helped them be successful. The school also has wonderful support services and activities outside of school hours - we live the monthly Friday morning family walks. The playground is excellent and they continue to make improvements to the school. We have really enjoyed being a park of the community.Note in my review I have special education a neutral rating because we do not use these services.

I've had three children go through this school , and all three of them looked forward to going to school everyday. The teaches and staff are amazing .

Great teachers...great curriculum...great kids!!
