    Woke Wednesday Message from Principal Armour

    • photo of principal

      May 13, 2020

      This is our last Woke Wednesday message of the school year. While walking the empty hallways of the building, I am overwhelmed with a range of emotions.

      As sad as it is to end the year the way we had to end it, let’s reflect on the positive moments - our homecoming celebrations, Wish Week, when we all danced for Destene, our incredibly successful HBCU/HSI/TSI College Fair and all of the food and fun of Culture Night. In every way, we have seen what it truly means to be Blazer Great, Blazer Proud, and Blazer Excellent.

      Congratulations to the class of 2020! To the freshmen, sophomores, and juniors, we’ll see you in August. Stay well, stay healthy, and stay safe.

      Much love, Blazers!

    • April 15, 2020

      Today’s motivation comes from my favorite author, Maya Angelou. She said, “I can be changed by what happens to me, but I refuse to be reduced by it.”

      We will not be the same when this is all over, but we will better and we will be stronger. I miss you, and I can’t wait to see you.

      I will in touch in the future about yearbooks, checkout, and, of course, graduation. We’re still working out the details on all of that. Right now, just focus on staying safe, staying home, and staying healthy.

      We love you all!

    • April 1, 2020

      This week we all begin remote learning and remote teaching. While this may be a significant change for most of us, we know that change is hard, but change forces us to grow.

      This school year has been filled with changes at Overland and with every change we have endured we are continuing to grow as individuals and as an Overland community.

      As I said before, you’ve got this! We’ve got this! Remember, years from now, this will be the story you tell your children and your grandchildren. For now, stay home, stay healthy and continue to stay engaged in your learning.

      Much love, Blazers!

    • March 18, 2020

      Even though we are on an extended Spring Break, I thought some positivity and encouragement might be in order. Today’s Woke Wednesday message is dedicated to our seniors, the Class of 2020. I realize there are a lot of unknowns right now regarding the remainder of your senior year. You are experiencing a range of emotions, which is understandable. I beg you to stay encouraged, stay connected with one another and keep each other lifted. FaceTime one another as much as possible. Don’t let social media be your primary outlet. Talk to one another, cherish this time with your family, stay healthy and be well, Blazers.

    • March 11, 2020

      Earlier this week, we celebrated International Women’s Day. Last night, here at Overland, we celebrated Culture Night. Women from across the world help shape our perspectives and our understanding of the world we live in.

      When I think about fearlessness, I think of Malala, the teenage crusader for women’s rights in the Middle East. When I think of beauty and brilliance, First Lady Michelle Obama comes to mind.

      When I think of perseverance, I think of J.K. Rowling who went from being unemployed to the multi-million dollar author of the Harry Potter series.

      And when I think “fierce” there’s only one Beyonce Knowles. Fearlessness, beauty, brilliance, perseverance and FIERCE lies in each one of us.

      Never limit the best in you. Your best qualities can be an inspiration and an aspiration to someone else. Stay Woke, Overland!

    • March 4, 2020

      In the spirit of Women’s History Month, today’s Woke Wednesday message speaks to the spirit of resilience.

      Helen Keller once said, “Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it.”

      Life will throw you all kinds of curve balls, stay the course, stay strong and stay woke, Overland.
