School Overview

William C. Overfelt High sits in the heart of East San Jose, a neighborhood with deep roots in the Latino community and a strong sense of cultural identity. The school serves a predominantly Hispanic student population and reflects the working-class, tight-knit character of the 95122 zip code — families here are often deeply invested in education as a pathway to opportunity.
